Junior Kindergarten has added new centers for math and language arts. The class has enjoyed learning about 2D and 3D shapes. They described, sorted, and created with spheres, cubes, rectangular prisms, cylinders, and cones. Calendar math continues to focus on matching, counting strategies, and patterns.
During language arts, JK has started a read and write center for sight words. Students enjoyed writing and recognizing sight words around the room. Students continue to add sight words and are reading pre decodable books. Students are working on matching beginning and ending sounds.
JK and SK have been working hard during Project. They are researching using books to discover new things about plants and animals in the garden. After research they recorded new things they have learned. We are preparing for our expert speakers by brainstorming questions to ask.
