This week we focused on the letter Rr. We talked about the sound the letter Rr made and words that begin with the letter Rr. We came up with rain, rainbow, rocket, robot, and rabbit.
On Tuesday, we started our day with a Rr coloring page while we waited for our friends to get there. For morning centers, we worked on ten frames with a rainbow theme, traced/wrote the letter Rr, matched upper-and-lowercase ABCs with a rainbow theme, and made towers to match the numbers on rainbow mats. Then we did the Rr says/r/ cut and paste page. After lunch, we worked on our rainbow name activity where we wrote our names on rainbow-colored strips. At the end of the day, we finished our rainbow name activity.
On Wednesday, we started our day by practicing tracing/writing our names while we waited for our friends to get there. Then we had our first day of specials. This is where we got to spend time with the five of the all-day teachers learning different things. Here we learned Spanish with Mrs. Missy, literacy with Mrs. Brenda, sign language with Mrs. Leslie, and science with Mrs. Aimee and Mrs. Brandi. We will be doing specials every Wednesday. After specials, we went back to our room and colored a color-by-letter rocket. After lunch, we did a rainbow write-the-room with Mrs. Leslie’s class. Here we walked around the room and found the matching ABCs and colored the letter on our sheet once we found them. We had fun!!! At the end of the day, we did our October monthly writing and coloring page.
On Thursday, we got to build in our building centers while we waited for our friend to arrive. For morning centers, we matched robot gears with Brain flakes, made robots with playdoh and robot playdoh mats, played a roll-a-robot game, and made robots/rockets with tanagrams puzzles. Then we colored a trace and color page. For afternoon art, we made rectangle robots by cutting out rectangles and pasting them together to make robots. At the end of the day, since it was a busy week, we went outside and played on the playground with Mrs. Leslie and Mrs. Missy’s classes.
