Day Two!

Today we did a lot of the same things as yesterday: learning rules and expectations, playing, and reading stories!  The kids' attention span was better today...hopefully it gets a little longer each day! :-)

Rug Expectations

We reviewed what it should look like and sound like when we are ready to learn on the rug.  Here are some of our friends showing that we should:

Sit criss-cross

Have our hands in our lap

Have our voices off

And keep our eyes on the speaker!

We also talked about what we should do if we have something we need to say....

Raise our hands!

Line Expectations

We also did more practice getting in line and thinking about what it looks like.  We need to.....

Face forward

Stand right behind the person in front of us

And have our hands at our sides!

 Look how straight our line is!!!

Math

For math today we did some counting looking at our number parade, counted with our fingers, and looked at the giant number cards 1-5.  Then we got to get our math tools!  We learned how to get them out carefully and put them on our math trays.  Then the kids got to play with the tools for a while and explore with them.  Then I asked them to put the number tiles in order on the top of their trays.  They did awesome!!  We are going to have a great time in math this year!  Tomorrow we are going to do an activity with these same math tools!
