This Week in Room 3

We read three different versions of the story of the Gingerbread Man. We discussed Characters and Settings, and practiced distinguishing between the two and then sorted them. We also discussed how stories can have similarities and differences. We compared and contrasted the story The Gingerbread Man and The Gingerbread Girl.

We also made gingerbread play dough and have loved playing with it all week making shapes and being creative. It also makes our classroom smell so good.

This week in Math, we continued practicing our addition skills using a variety of tools, such as number beads and number lines.

In Science, we did an experiment making Ooblek which is made by mixing corn starch and water! This was messy but a lot of fun.

In the gym we have been enjoying playing cooperative tag games and What Time is it Mr. Wolf? We have also enjoyed using the EZ Rollers and playing catch while using them with the soft balls.

In Art we made Christmas stockings and worked on our December Self Portraits.

It was a great week in Room 3! Have a wonderful weekend!
