Week of 1/28

2/1/2019

 
Dear Red Room Families,

The cold weather made it an ideal week to stay cozy inside and read books. Here are some of the things we worked on.
 
Theme:
  • Author Study: Kevin Henkes

The Kevin Henkes Books We Read:

  • Chester’s Way
  • Lilly’s Purple Plastic Purse
  • Julius The Baby of the World
  • Lilly’s Big Day
  • Penny and Her Marble
  • Chrysanthemum
  • Owen
  • Wemberly Worried
  • Shelia Rae, The Brave

Centers:

  • In the math center, we compared Chrysanthemum’s name with our own. Each child observed the letters that each name begins and ends with. The children then linked together a row of thirteen unifix cubes for Chrysanthemum's name and then made a separate row for the amount of letters in their own name. They were then able to compare how much longer or shorter their names were and then filled in a chart with the results.
  • At the art center, the children painted and designed their own purple purses and then filled them with special tokens to represent the books we read.
  • After working as a whole group on a chart describing the recurring character of “Lilly”, each child drew a self portrait and wrote three descriptive sentences about his or herself in the writing center.  
  • We whipped up some of Kevin Henkes' favorite character recipes when we made “Mr. Slinger’s Cheesy Rice Crisps” and “Wemberly's Worry-Free Punch” in the cooking center.
