This week we learnt about number bonds for 20. So we used blocks and number lines to work out what is the missing number if we want to make 20 and we have 6 already.
In literacy, we practised writing letters l, m and o and in phonics we revised short vowel sounds in preparation for learning long vowel sounds.
Our new unit of inquiry is: Sharing resources helps the world. This as part of the transdisciplinary theme: How the world works. Last week the children learnt what a resource is and the difference between natural and human-made resources. They did a cut and paste activity in teams in which they had to sort the resources into the two categories.
They also learnt how to share resources with Pre K A in an activity where they had to make a tree out of paper. Pre K B were given scissors and brown paper while Pre K A were given the green paper and glue. The children were asked how they can make the tree if they didn't have all the resources. Keita said, "share!"
The other challenge was to avoid wasting any paper which they did very well. They realised that they could scrunch up the leftover pieces and glue them onto the leaves.
