During Open Circle, we learned about 2 different types of breathing techniques- balloon breathing (breathing in through the belly and out the mouth) and flower breathing (breathing in through the nose and out the mouth). We discussed how breathing can make us feel calm and more ready to deal with a tricky situation. Tomorrow, we will role play certain situations where we might need to breathe.
During Fundations, we added the letters "r" and "e" to our magnet boards. We then identified letters by their sound. Lastly, we began to tap and blend letters together to create words!
We had math stations today where the children worked very hard on all different types of activities! Some children played "top it" (you might know this game as "war") where children put down a card, decided whose card was greater and then kept the cards. We encouraged the children to use the language of "8 is greater than 7". Others worked with me and Ms. Lepow to create a graph based on the letters in our name. Others explored line puzzles , and another group continued to practice number writing.
Liam's mom joined us at the end of the day as our Mystery Reader. She read Arnie The Donut. Thank you for spending part of your afternoon with us!
