The past two weeks we have been working on finishing up our nursery rhyme and fairy tale unit. We read "Jack and the Beanstalk" and then did a rhyming game with some of the words from the story.
| Students rolled the die and had to think of a rhyme for the picture they rolled. If they made a correct rhyme, students put a dot on the picture. |
We also read several versions of the Gingerbread Man and wrote about how we would catch the gingerbread man!
| "I would catch the gingerbread man by scooping him up in my scooper on my rocket ship" (Anna AM). |
| "I would catch the gingerbread man by making a gingerbread house" (Evi AM). |
| "I would catch the gingerbread man by going on a motorcycle and scooping him up with an ice cream scoop" (Noah AM). |
| "I would catch the gingerbread man by setting a trap" (Reese PM). |
| "I would catch the gingerbread man by making a pretty gingerbread house and have the gingerbread girl and boy come inside" (Jo Lin PM). |
To wrap up our Nursery Rhyme unit we held the Nursery Rhyme Olympics! Students had to complete five events. After each event, students received a gold medal for the event. The kiddos had a blast!
The first event was the Mother Goose Waddle!
The second event was Jack Be Nimble Candlestick Jump!
The third event was the Humpty Dumpty Puzzle Fixing!
The fourth event was the Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Letter Sort!
The final event was the Hey Diddle Diddle Spoon Race!
Students then strung their medals onto a necklace for each completed event.
We learned all about the letter Gg. Lots of students are working hard on stretching out their sounds!
We read a non-fiction book about groundhog's and predicted whether or not the groundhog would see his shadow.
| PM's Prediction. |
| AM's Prediction. |
We also had our Mystery Readers!
| Linda was our AM Mystery Reader (1/25). |
| April and Allie's Dad was our PM Mystery Reader (1/25). |
| Noah's Mom was our AM Mystery Reader (2/1). |
| Brinya's Dad was our PM Mystery Reader (2/1). |
Love,
Miss Lucas
