Tuesday, March 7

Group Meeting:  I displayed puppets from the story Goldilocks and the Three Bears.  We thought of things that the bears and Goldilocks would say.  I encouraged the children to find things in the classroom to use to make beds, chairs, and bowls for the bear's house so that they could act out the story.

Story:  When I read fairy tales, I usually repeat the story on the next day.  This gives the children a chance to see things that they might have missed the first time.  Today, I read Goldilocks and the Three Bears by Bonnie Dobkin.  This time, I left out some of the words to see if the children could fill in the missing parts.

Small Groups:  Goldilocks and the Three Bears gives us the opportunity to use the words large, medium, and small.  The children were given a emergent reader book of the three bears and things from their home.  We "read" the book by running our fingers under the words.

Letter Learning:  The letter for today was Dd.  The Dd tub contained a dolphin, dinosaur, duck, dog, donut, and domino.  We traced and printed the letter Dd and circled Dd in words in a sentence.

Large Group:  We prepared for our trip to the fire station.  The children are ready to look for simple machines that the fire fighters use.  A note was sent home with some more information about the trip.

Snack:  The snack for today was apples, peanut butter or Nutella, milk and water.
