IF you are planning a very 3D fruit of veggie, please attach something for me to hang it on our bulletin board. Please bring your project back to school on Monday, November 7th

MMMMMMMMMMMM............Monsters


Monsters are a super fun week!!! I know and your children know that monsters are NOT real, but this is a fun way to teach the letter M. 

This is a great activity for teaching measurement and once to one correspondents. First, we painted monsters. I really love see each child interpretation of a monster. 
 Then we used the Unifix Cubes to see how tall our monsters were. 
Last, but not least, we wrote the height in (Unifix Cubes) on our paper. 


Another great counting activity. First I traced each child's foot, with their shoe on. Then, each child was given the option for the number of eye that they wanted the monster to have. We counted the eyes and your child wrote the number in the blank. We are really working hard on writing independently!! 

Today, we made Shape Monsters. I love the way these little guys turned out!!! Since we are learning our shapes, this was a perfect way to create shape in a whole new way!
