Woods and a Math Play!

I apologize for no post yesterday but here are a few pictures from our day:







Yesterday during Math I worked with a small group to put on a play!  First we arranged large number cards in order from 1-10 in a path and then students acted out a math story about walking to a birthday party as I read the story.  It was quite fun!  During play some students also used straws and paint to blow paint on a piece of paper.  We are going to cut these out and add googley eyes and make them into monsters.

Today we began morning meeting with a compliment circle.  We talked about how a compliment is when you say something nice that you like or appreciate about someone else.  It was a great way to start our morning with kindness and think about what we appreciate about our classroom community.

Students noticed that the woods are changing!  The ground is completely covered with leaves.  After the woods and lunch we read our second to last book in our Ezra Jack Keats' Author Study: My Dog is Lost.  Students quickly noticed something different about this book - it had an illustrator that was not Keats.  We talked about how sometimes two people can work on a book together and maybe this is something that Kindergartners will do in the future.
