This week during group we have been reading the book Fish Eyes. The children love interacting and counting the fish as Ms. Bree-anna turns each page. The boys and girls took turns placing numbers by the matching fish.

During group time this week, the Toddlers practiced sorting things that go! Each child took a turn placing a vehicle on the big magnetic board. The boys and girls love when it’s their turn to participate in group!
Last week the Toddlers explored the theme of birds. During small groups, the children took turns matching shapes on eggs. They used their fine motor skills to put the eggs together and pull them apart. They also painted ovals (our shape of the month) with feathers!
Sorting, graphing, counting, and comparing quantities of sets were all involved in our Jelly Bean Math Activity!
During small groups, the children took turns placing bugs in a line from big to small. We also talked about the bugs and different characteristics the children observed. For example,colors, wings, spots, stripes, legs, etc.
This week the Toddlers are reviewing the letters of the month. Each child took a turn matching a letter on the magnetic wall.
Our name activity for March has been building flowers using our names! Each child has to find their name and take it to the boy or girl flower and when all of the names are on the board we count how many boys and girls are at school. The children love to try to figure out who is not at school and if we have more boys or more girls.
This month the Toddlers have been going over the difference between hard and soft. Each day at group time, we look around the room for objects that are soft and objects that are hard. Today during small groups, the boys and girls explored pom poms, sand, pebbles, and macaroni noodles. Together we talked about which items were hard and which were soft.
We combined science with math today and sorted our classroom animals by the type of habitat they live in. We will begin talking about the desert habitat next month as we explore ancient and current day Egypt.
