Math Mania







This past week the Sea Turtles enjoyed lots of math challenges. They engaged in hands-on subtraction and addition activities and I think surprised themselves at how much they grasped! The boys are loving new challenges and eager to learn. They have all taken on positive attitudes when it comes to trying new things which will be so helpful once they enter in kindergarten and in life in general! 
Tours have been coming through our classroom and the boys always greet the person with a hello and I have volunteers go up and introduce themselves. I ask them, "where do you look when you speak to someone?" They all loudly respond, "EYES!" Not only are they cognitively growing, but their confidence is abounding! 
This next week will be all about Dr. Seuss!
See you Monday!
Love, Miss Meika

Happy Valentine's Day!












The Sea Turtles had a wonderful week preparing for Valentine's Day. We engaged in all activities related to the festive holiday including candy heart patterning, candy heart addition, heart letter sounds, creating and painting gifts, and much more. The boys were very excited to have me back in class after being gone for a couple days. We are looking forward to our class Valentine's Day party!
See you Monday!
Love, Miss Meika
