Week of November 12

Four Winds: conifer trees. We learned about Hemlocks, cedars, firs, spruce, pines. They all have needles and cones.






Math Highlights
We are becoming teen number experts in kindergarten! We can represent teen numbers as a group of ten and some more ones with ten frames, tally sticks, scattered objects and our math hands. We are learning how to represent the part-part-whole relationship of addition with objects and written equations. The children are working hard at justifying their math thinking as they work with partners and share in front of the class. We continue to practice naming numerals, ordering numerals, and counting forwards and backwards. 

Math Game "one more"

Mathematicians roll a die, and add 1 more.

+1 is the same as thinking about he number that comes JUST AFTER a number, which we have worked on a lot!


2+1=3

4+1=5. Mathematicians color the number on the game board.























HAPPY THANKSGIVING! It is a privilege and joy to work with you and your children!
