Do you know how to exit a room that has smoke? We read the book Stop Drop and Roll by Margery Cuyler and learned that smoke rises and the safest way to exit a room with smoke is to crawl. We also learned that before opening a door we should check it with our hand. If the door feels cold we may open the door if the door is hot we do not open the door, fire may be on the other side, we find a new way out.
The children had a fun time in Jumpbunch. We played Rocket Ball! The children threw soft balls wrapped in streamers across the room, to each other, and through a hoop!
We read one of our favorite stories: Miss Mingo and the Fire Drill by Jamie Harper about a class of animals who do not know what to do during a fire drill. We reviewed our fire drill procedures and walked the path to our meeting spot, that we learned is in the Bishop’s Garden, as we walked to chapel.
We worked on numeration(1-5) and (1-9) with our jack-o-lantern 1 to 1 matching lesson from our math area.
Take a look at the spooky cool shadow are project the children have been working on.
This morning’s lesson is called, Parts of a Jack-o-Lantern. All the Halloween lessons we have been working with has excited the Kindergarten children. Ask your child to tell you the difference between a Pumpkin and a Jack-O-Lantern.
