This past week, students had the opportunity to continue to explore which addition strategies worked best for them. During several “Round Robin” type activities, students used the strategies they’ve learned about to help them to add. They chose from using hands-on materials, counting in their heads, out loud, or on their fingers, tally marks, number lines, writing a number sentence, and touch points. They had a lot of fun discovering how they learned best and were able to accurately complete their tasks while having fun.
In English this week, students also learned about inferencing this week, taking what they know and see and coming up with new ideas. We used a game called “Inference Charades” to help students initially understand the concept. They also practiced reading their tricky words by recording them on our touch pads, iPads, and microphones. The students enjoyed learning through technology! Great job, Preschool 5!
We, additionally, introduced Unit 4! (can you believe it?) on Cultures and Traditions, allowing the students to explore different artifacts from different places around the world. We discussed what they knew about Cultures and Traditions and what they wanted to know more about, which will help to guide our unit and learning.
