This week we talked about the letter Rr and the sound that letter Rr makes.
Our themes this week are Robots & Rectangles, Rockets and Rainbows.
On Tuesday, we focused on the theme of robots & rectangles. For morning centers, we matched “robot gears” with the correct number card, cut and pasted a rectangle robot craft, traced/wrote the letter Rr, and measured robots with unifix cubes. For afternoon centers, we made robots out of playdoh & robot playdoh mats, made robots out of tangram puzzles, made rectangles with geoboards and played a” roll a robot” game. At the end of the day, we traced and colored a robot.
On Wednesday, we focused on the theme of rockets. For morning centers, we subitize number matching rockets, cut and paste the Rr says /r/ page, match upper and lowercase ABCs rockets and traced our ABCs with a rocket themed worksheet. In the afternoon, we had specials with the four all-day teachers. Also, we played a group activity where we answered Rr riddles with the picture.
On Thursday, we focused on the theme of rainbows. In the morning, for art, we made an R rainbow craft with cotton balls and Fruit Loops. For centers in the afternoon, made towers with the correct number of cubes with a rainbow number mat, played in a space/rocket sensory bin, wrote our names on rainbow colored strips and pasted on a cloud, and rainbow wrote the letter R. Also in the afternoon, we did an ABC, rainbow themed “write the room” with Mrs. Brenda’s class.
As always, if you ever have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Until next week,
Mrs. Brandi
