This week we did a lot of creepy science in preparation for Halloween. We talked about why people find bugs so creepy. We looked at the skull and figured out why it is so important to have as part of our body. In official science news, we are starting a new unit on animals. Looking at what they need and how they make shelters.
Our nursery rhyme and fable unit has ended officially this week and we'll be moving on to our author study. This will take quite a bit of time and into the new year. We'll start off with Dr. Seuss because it is a fun transition while using his infamous rhyming words. We'll be looking at the parts of a book and what authors really do.
Our social studies unit has also ended and you hopefully got a collection of their work. Moving forward will be the concept of history. What was life like long ago? How did a kindergartner spend their day 100 years ago? There are a lot of transitions in content over this week and next, but we're ready for it!
Things to talk about from the week:
- Portion (portioning out cake)
- Wild animals in costumes
- Ms. Sarah's skeleton hands!
- Melting crayons on a pumpkin
