MARVELOUS MONDAY 10-7-13

ASK ME ABOUT...
...where I went and what I did for Work Stations.
...the new "have to" activities at the Work Stations.
...what I did in Spanish.
...the new "Star of the Week"!
...the story, The Crayon Box That Talked
...what we did with our 2nd grade buddies! 

 NEW WORK STATIONS~
Today we started a new round of work stations.  We also introduced "have-to" tasks at some of the work stations.  Children know if there is a "have-to" task as it is a tray/basket/container marked with a small frog.  This reminds the children that they must complete that task at the station before choosing another task.  When they complete the task, children turn in their work in a tray with a large frog.  (See photos below.) 

 

Here are the "have-to" activities for this rotation....
At Math Magic, children complete each ten-frame according to the number shown on the apple.
 

 At the Fine Motor Station, children are to complete the cutting sheets pictured below.

 At Games Galore, children play a classmate memory game.

 At the Writing Station, children practice writing the passwords we have learned so far.
 
 First, the child chooses a password from the Word Wall.


 The child then writes each password three times, using three different types of writing tools.
 STAR OF THE WEEK~
Harper is our "Star of the Week"! Some of Harper's favorite things include:  California Pizza Kitchen (favorite restaurant); cookies and cream ice cream (favorite dessert); and the Disney store (favorite place to visit).  Harper shared her photos with us and also a Lego castle that she built.   Thank you for helping us get to know you better, Harper!
 OTHER~
We decorated our "W" with watches!
Our class Birthday Book is complete and now available to read in our class "Book Nook".
