Nov. 12

Morning Meeting-We did the Bubble Gum song and the Bennie Bear song.
Specials-We went to music
Read Aloud-We read Bubble Bear
Shared Reading-We read the Nursery Rhyme Baa Baa Black Sheep
Reading Activity-We went on a Bb hunt. We practiced writing letters. We wrote Bb and Rr. We made our Benny Bear book page.
Special Event-Mrs. Schultz, our school nurse, came to talk to us about germs. We learned what germs are, how they can be spread and how we can get rid of them by washing our hands. We learned a song to help us get all of the germs off of our hands. We talked about good times to wash our hands. We did a science experiment. Mrs. Schultz put "germs" on Mrs. Milow's hands. Then she showed the "germs" with a black light. My "germs" were spread onto Mrs. Schultz. Then I washed using our new hand washing song as my guide. We looked at my hands under the black light again and the germs were gone.
Rest Time-We started our new chapter book-Stanely, Flat Again.
Math-We did calendar and calendar book. We had rectangle day in math. We compared a rectangle and circle and then a rectangle and a square. We went on a rectangle hunt. We made a person with rectangles. We made domino rectangles and practiced addition.
Social-We talked about where we live. We live on Earth. We live on the continent of North America. We live in the country of the United States of America. We live in the state of Minnesota. We live in the town of Rockford (or Buffalo, Corcoran or Greenfield). We looked on a map of the Earth and found our continent and our country. We looked on a USA map to find our state and our town.
