Some big ideas-predicting and investigating, but that is what we conquered today in kindergarten!
This morning we read the story, The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything. We stopped midway through to predict what the lady would see when she opened the door. We put our predictions behind a paper door. Many of us where right on with our predictions. We discussed how you need to take the information you already know from a story to make a prediction, it shouldn't just be a complete random guess.
We also learned about sequence. We talked about clue words and put the Little Old Lady story in order, as well as our Plaidypus Lost story from yesterday.
We continued to work on our shape posters.
This afternoon we investigated a leaf! We went outside and chose a leaf from the ground. We wrote about the color and drew an accurate picture.
We measured our leaf with cubes.
We measured the surface area with pennies.
We also found out how many pennies it would take to get our leaf to sink in water.
We dropped our leaf to see how long it took to float to the ground.
So many science skills were used this afternoon!
See you tomorrow!
Love,
Mrs. Huettl
