- In language arts, we read a book about fish and practiced the strategies of asking questions and comparing/contrasting. We also practiced breaking apart words into their individual sounds.
- In math, we were introduced to a new math center called, Bug Catchers. With this new center, we are practicing recording and solving subtraction problems.
- In writing, we worked on writing a three part story (three sentences). We also practiced writing adjectives, which was inspired by the author Eric Carle. Many of his books contain an adjective in the title.
- In science, we focused on learning the life cycle of a butterfly. We really enjoyed acting it out!
- During community centers, we continued to observe our caterpillars. They have now turned into a chrysalis and we have transferred them to our butterfly pavilion. Another one of our favorite centers is our nylon caterpillar center. We stuffed a nylon with dirt and grass seed. We are hoping the seeds will grow and the grass will stick out of the top.
