Moving through March

Here is a glance into what we have been up to this month!

We have been learning two sight words each week.  These words are the words that we read most often in books.  We do several activities to learn these words.  We sing about them, do motions as we spell them, color them, write them, and create artwork with them.  During our literacy game time we have played some fun games with sight words.







Our main focus in science has been force and motion.  We have learned about how to make objects move with various forces.  It has been very fun to do projects such as making ramps...









.....and marble motion art!














In math we have been making comparisons.  We use the greater than, less than, and equal sign when we do this.  Sometimes we compare the length of yarn or the length of  items in the classroom (like in the pictures shown) and sometimes we compare the amount of steps it takes to get from one point to the next.






Our work places have included making comparisons and has allowed us to practice other skills as well.  We have been writing simple equations, ordering numbers 1-10, and making predictions.






In between our work times we play games and sing songs!  One of our favorite games to play is Statues.  One of us gets to be the guard, wandering through a museum of statues that move when the guard isn't looking!  If the guard catches a statue moving then the statue must sit down.





We are so glad to be back in the forest!  The weather is changing so much.  We will begin to learn about spring next week and it will be so fun to observe the changes of that season up close!
