Today we practice using bar models to find the missing addends. I have told them they have to be math detectives and can only use the given clues.
For example: I gave them the problem 5+?=7. They used the bar model and counter to solve the addend mystery.
Then 4 + ? = 5.
The children reviewed for the science test in a game type format. I have light up buttons. I asked a question and they had to punch their button. Whichever color lit up, told us who was supposed to answer the question.
We completed a couple of different activities when discussing verbs.
First, I played the Dr. Jean song “Verbs”. In the song she says: verbs, verbs, action words. Things that you can do.
The children made a big circle and acted out the word if it was an action. They acted out the words such as walk, jog, swim, hop, etc. They had to be still when she said words such as dog or tree. The pictures are not very good.
I am sorry I have not posted lately. Between getting ready for my daughter’s wedding and catching up after the wedding I am behind.
