8, 9, 10- Ready or not, here I come!
We played Hide and Seek today as we begin our week of looking for things! We are listening and looking at the letter Ll for look. We will learn to look all week!
Some of the KDIs we are hitting on this week are-
Sense of competence: Children feel they are competent.- Hats, gloves or mittens, boots and zipping up our coats, give us time and we can do it. My rule of trying is they try once for every year old they are, so 4 year olds try 4 times, etc. Many times they get it on the first or second try! One of my college professors sayings was, "Nothing succeeds like success." Once they master it, they are ready to take on other challenges!
Observing: Children observe the materials and processes in their environment.- We are looking at everything this week.
Tools and technology: Children explore and use tools and technology.- We are talking about things that help us see like binoculars, telescope, glasses. How can we use those tools?
Jesus Time- This week we are hearing the story of the Three Men in the Fiery Furnace. King Nebuchadnezzer demands that the young men from Israel bow down to his false idol. When they refuse, he has them thrown into a fiery furnace. God delivers them in a miraculous way and the King sees the power of the King of Kings!!
Books of the Week- "How to Hide an Octopus" by Ruth Heller and "The Runaway Bunny" by Margaret Wise Brown.
Next week is our field trip to the Outdoor Adventure Center on Wednesday, December 7 at 10am. Please return the attendance slip by this Friday.
Have a great week!
Mrs. Schneck
