Week 8 - Mali

Language Arts: We did Reading Eggs activities this week a couple of times. We reviewed sounds of the letters we have learned and went over ways to remember which is lowercase b and which is lowercase d. Lowercase d has the “doughnut” come first and lowercase b has the “bat” come first.

Math: We practiced counting with the numbers 11-20. We also played some MathSeeds. We built with the math blocks and played “What’s under the cup?” I wrote the numbers 1-16 on a piece of tape on our Spielgaben blocks. We made patterns with Spielgaben and explored the different shapes we could make with a row of blocks taped together.

Tumbling & Trampolining: Our teacher said we were doing really good at improving our skills, especially for being in Level 1. We are supposed to practice our jumps at home on our trampoline outside but it has been really cold.

Other: At co-op in our body class we learned about the brain and made models of the different brain parts with play-doh (see pictures). We learned about elephants in our animal class and how they are really good at smelling. We did an activity where we smelled different things in cups and tried to identify them. We also did an elephant pumpkin craft. There are two kinds of elephants--African and Asian.
