What are We Learning
Literacy
We will review the letters M, N, and O this month. We will read “Mouse Paint,” “The Mitten,” “Not Quite Narwhal,” and Commotion in the Ocean.”
Math
The children will measure lines with shape links, count snowmen, mark which night owl is different, and make shapes in oatmeal.
Physical
For fine motor, the children will make letters in play dough, lace noodles, and write in oatmeal trays. For gross motor, we will play “What’s that Noise?” and Shadow Dance.
Science
In the first week, we will learn about our five senses. The children will use scent bottles to distinguish different scents, taste lemons and graph if they like them, and feel different textures on a texture board. We will also pop popcorn and talk about what senses we are using during the whole process.
Social/Emotional
The children will experiment with Magic Milk. We will also predict if the groundhog will see his shadow and talk about what it means if he does see his shadow.
