Enjoy these pictures of our classroom and the children learning through play! Students gained knowledge about number concepts and operations, explored shapes and spatial awareness, compared and measured, demonstrated their knowledge of patterns, began to demonstrate geographic knowledge, showed basic understanding of change that relates to places, people, things.
Our kiddos increased their cognitive development by approaching learning in a positive way, making connections through remembered experiences to current experiences, and used classification skills. The kids really took off in their literacy development with demonstrating their knowledge of print and its uses through our read alouds, comprehending and responding to various versions of the fairy tale Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and began to sequence the story from beginning, middle, and end.
Yes, we’ve been busy learners in room 121 for the past three weeks! After winter break we are moving on to Transportation…with a little bit of snow science too! Choo-choo-, beep-beep, honk-honk, tug-tug, and away we go into 2013!!!
Thank you for sharing Ms. Hopkins! I hope you have a wonderful Holiday Season! Thank you for everything you do for our kids each and everyday. Happy New Year and see you in Jan.
