Dear Koala Room Families,

We had so much fun this week learning all about the Holiday's! We are continuing to learn all about Hanukkah.

Classroom Activities:
  • We participated in the Hour of Code! We started off by talking about what a robot is and what makes a robot move.  We discussed how robots operate off of instructions and in order to accomplish a task, a robot needs to listen to the instructions.  Using symbols such as an upward arrow, downward arrow, arrow pointing to the left, and an arrow pointing to the right, the students successfully created a tower of cups! The upward arrow represented picking up a cup, the downward arrow represented putting down a cup, the arrow pointing to the left represented to move backwards, and the arrow pointing to the right represented moving forward.
  • Each student had a turn looking at the cards, processing the symbol, and then maneuvering their body and cup to create the tower of cups. We had SO much fun with this activity! Please be sure to check out our photos from this coding activity.
  • We played Dreidel! We worked on our listening, math, and fine motor skills by playing this fun game.
  • We cooked latkes by shredding potatoes, onions, and then adding some eggs and salt. We devoured them with some apple sauce on the side!
