December Recap

How quickly time flies - so here are the highlights! In December our books were Owl Babies and The Gingerbread Man. I developed a Smart Board activity for Owl babies that included size sorting, and opportunities to use the vocabulary for small, medium, and large as well as comparisons for smaller, bigger, biggest, smallest. My students enjoyed matching the owls to the corresponding size nest. For Gingerbread Man, I found some games that included counting, matching cookie halves, and an interactive story decorating the gingerbread man and turning the pages to listen to the story. To round out all of these technology based enrichments, we baked real cookies and ate them for snack. December was a very successful month of finding existing technology and developing my own activities to enhance our curriculum.
