Week of 9/24

Hello Koala Bear Families!
 
We had such an exciting week in the Koala Bear Room! The student have been having so much fun being back in school together again. We have been talking about the start of school, learned about different types of bears, and even voted on a name of our classroom “pet” - “Little K” The Koala Bear!
 
Classroom Activities: 

• We went on a bear hunt throughout the school searching for a bear cave. We found the cave in the Art Studio! We were so excited to see the bears hibernating inside!
  
• Used dot markers to create placemats for snack.
• Made AB patterns with different types of bears.
• Learned about size order by using small, medium, and large bears and deciphered each bear size and glued them accordingly in their respective column.
• Played an Alphabet Match-Up Puzzle game
• Used pegs to place on peg boards that were each assigned with a specific number (1-10).
• The Letter of the Week was “L”! We made a list of L words, used play-do to create the letter “L”, and glued down pictures of lions onto a letter “L”!
