Week 18, living things.

Last week we officially began our unit about living things. The students understood the concept pretty easily. They understood and knew what living things are, and we learned some new vocabulary to use in this context. Words like breathe, move, and grow. As we continue our unit we will learn more vocabulary that they can use when referring to living and non-living things.

The first few days of the week we learned about what is a living thing and what isn't. I would show them a living thing, or non living thing and they would say yes or no.

During our gym time we played many type of games focusing on team building exercises. In this game they had to try and put as many balls in the net as they could in 3 minutes.

Last week we did quite a few art projects. They painted their own paintings of living things, as well as sculpted living things from clay.

As you can see we got some young artists in the making!

 

The goal for PreK A is for them to be able to read words and sentences by term 3 and we are hard at work every morning memorizing words and trying to reach the next level. Please encourage them to work on it at home! It will help a lot!

That all the updates I have for you for now, stay tuned for more.
