Guess what’s back? back again? School is back. Tell your friends.
Today our mindfulness meditation is the Inhaling Iguana. I’ve taken to drawing the animals on the board where I give them a prompt for reflection time. Today, the critics were out in force:
”that doesn’t look like an iguana dad. Maybe a chameleon. Iguanas don’t catch flies. You need to watch more Wild Kratts”
-Mila and Jonah 😂
Not my finest parenting here for Jonah 😬
For math today, I worked with Jonah on making 10 and adding on using “10 and ones” strategy. We used linking cubes and some other printouts from Singapore Math
He had to count by by making a group of 10 and adding the excess ones, the he found the long form number, and the numerical representation
Linking cube monster RUN!!!!
After finishing math time, M&J used the linking cubes to measure themselves and make towers
We did ELA time (spelling test, tracing, and reading comprehension).
Then, to prepare for this upcoming weekend trip to Point Lobos, we started learning about the plants and animals we could find there.
To finish the day, we did piano and reading. Jonah rocking the solar system
