Ww is for...

I had so much fun preparing and teaching about Ww.
While waiting for the kids to gather, I brought out some
cards the kids wrote on with dry erase markers.
They were a big hit!
Monday was all about question words and READING!
Who What When Where Why

For Who: we read two books..."Who Builds" and "Who Digs."

For What: we read "What Spot?"

For When: we read "When I Get Bigger"
We talked about all the things we can do now
and what we will learn to do as we get bigger.

For Where: we read "Where the Wild Things Are"
Wondering if anyone has seen the new movie out? Is it good?
Maybe we should do a field trip and take the preschoolers to it?

For Why: we read "Why do You Always Have to Say Please?"

In between all of that reading we took a small break.
For recess we danced to "Wobbly Woopsy."
For snack we ate Wiggily Jell-o, bananas, and crackers.

We also listened and followed directions on our Ww page.
On the back of the sheet we wrote our names with stencils.

Wednesday had a fun theme I've been planning on since Fall!
Carter and I collected some Wheat from along a farmer's field.
We read "The Little Red Hen" and learned about wheat.
There were lots of Words like Water, Wheelbarrow, Wheat...

Together we ground some wheat with my grinder.
Then we added ingredients to make Waffles!
While the Waffle iron was heating we read two more versions
of the little red hen and compared them.

Finally we ate our waffles! Some of our littlest kids ate the most!
(Either that of they didn't eat much lunch that day...L0L!)



We cleaned up from waffles and did a "HEN" writing page.
The kids also were GREAT at the sequencing page.
They colored, cut, and put in order the Little Red Hen story.

We finished off the day waiting for parents and playing "Hullabaloo!"
