On Thursday, we took our last look at The Little Red Lighthouse and the Great Gray Bridge. We worked on our math skills and learned to make tally marks. We made a tally mark for every boat we saw in the story. We came up with about 23 boats total. Great tally marking everyone! Hopefully, you challenge your kiddos to go home and count with tally marks, or it would be even better if they did it on their own.
Next, we moved on to compound words. This was SO MUCH FUN! We put a lot of words together to make new words. The best part was their excitement when they thought of a compound word to share with the group! Their words were very impressive.
And finally, we looked at a pretty amazing pop-up book about ships. We learned so much about their boat experience. Two of the kids have even driven a boat!!! (I think they both attributed this to their grandpas.)
Next Thursday, we are going to read a wonderful book titled, Mrs. Katz and Tush.
