We are continuing our study of families. Today we read Max Cleans Up, by Rosemary Wells and Alligator Baby, by Robert Munsch. The latter is a funny little story of a set of parents who keep coming home with the wrong animal baby. The big sister is the one who gets it all straightened out. The kids really liked this book. During centers the children were given the opportunity to feed, dress, etc. baby dolls. They all made very good parents. We also made a big floor graph showing how many students in our class are boys/girls, have sisters or brothers, and which cities we live in. In math this month we are working on counting and recognizing the numbers one to ten. We sang lots of counting songs (The Ants Go Marching One by One, One Two Buckle My Shoe, and Five Little Monkeys) and we used fun foam counters.
We practiced our cutting and gluing skills while classifying "parents" and "children."
We finally got to play with Play Dough today!
