NEW WORK STATIONS~ This week, we introduced some new activities at our Work Stations. These are activities which children must do/complete when visiting that particular station.
At Games Galore, children can play this bean bag toss game to review our passwords. Children toss the bean bag and then read the password next to the hole that caught the bean bag.
At the Overhead Station, children are working on this Space word search.
At the Alphabet Station, children use window markers and practice writing words and names from our Word Wall.
At Math Magic, children complete the "Target Number" activity with the target number being 6. Children come up with 5 different ways to show an amount of 6.
At the Writing Station, children are illustrating and dictating a story about Outer Space.
In the photo below is a non-fiction story we read about the giant octopus. It included interesting factual information. Be sure to ask your child some of these questions...
~What are the arms/legs of the octopus called?
~What are the small circles on the tentacles of an octopus?
~What can an octopus do to protect itself or escape from a predator?
~Where did the octopus in the story lay her eggs?
~What happens to the tentacle of an octopus if a part of it breaks off?
Following the story, children drew a picture of an octopus for their Pre-K Alphabet Memory Books.
