![]() We have had several busy weeks. I am very much enjoying the children. Here is a look at our time together. Look for more regular blog posts now that I've figured it out. Thank you so much for your patience! Here, T sets out the cards used to form complex numbers. (numbers in the thousands) Setting them out reinforces them in his mind as he counts 1 unit, 2 units, 3 units and so on to 9; then 1 ten, 2 tens, 3 tens, ...9 tens, 1 hundred, 2 hundreds... ![]() ...and finally 1000. He has already set out the matching golden beads. It also gives him good counting practice. ![]() J writes words with the phonogram, "sh". The 2 different colored alphabets help to highlight the "sh". ![]() E builds the Binomial Cube, a very popular activity. ![]() E and E enjoy eating lunch together. ![]() J, B and M are hungry after time in the garden. ![]() Hungry children are practicing grace and courtesy, waiting for all to be ready before eating. As they prepare for eating, enjoy the meal and then clean up, - their are experiencing the full cycle of the meal -the candles, flowers, napkins, placecards, dishes, and tablecloths don't just appear on the tables, children put them there and each child takes part in putting them away. Together, we are a community. ![]() S has just finished the challenge of building the Binomial Cube wearing a blindfold. That grin says it all! ![]() E grades the color tablets from dark to light in 9 colors. ![]() E draws with chalk. ![]() B writes words, breaking them down into sounds and finding each letter. ![]() M checks her progress as she sorts the beads into the small bowls wearing a blindfold. ![]() J is making 78 with the cards on the ten boards and with the beads next to it. As he does, he sees both the symbol (numeral) and the quantity in beads. ![]() A chooses a South American flag to copy and fill in. As he does, he is strengthening his hand for writing as well as becoming familiar with the flags of many countries. ![]() Everyone loves music with Ms Julie on Tuesdays! Comments are closed.
