We worked on the concepts of heavier and lighter. Penny really enjoyed using a balance scale to determine how many cubes different objects weighed. She then guessed which objects would be heavier/lighter and used the balance scale to see if she was correct.

Sight Words – Penny read the words on her sight word ring and then read the book” Can You See It?”
Using shaving cream she wrote some of her sight words.

Penny worked on practice reading with high-frequency words. Penny practiced reading words with initial and final "d" sounds in connected texts. Penny worked on phonics with saying the word "bread" and "dogs" and listening for the beginning and final "d" sound. Penny learned the word fiction and that they are made-up stories with characters, setting, and events. Penny found textual evidence in the text and pictures to support who the characters are, what event was happening, and what the characters bought. Penny also completed comprehension questions on the leveled reader.

Today we worked on memorizing where each note is on the piano. We used the number system for her to begin playing simple melodies. She told me she was left handed so we worked on developing the five finger position in her left hand.

I worked with Penny to complete the hair, skin and costume.

Identify Upper/Lower Case Letters and Letter sounds – Using letter cards Penny matched the lower case letters with the upper case and gave the sound of the letter. We also played a concentration game with these cards.

Penny practiced different activities comparing and contrasting items, such as schools in the past and schools now, and created a Venn diagram with pictures of the items. Penny practiced learning similarities and differences in numbers and patterns and easily wrote her first and last name. Penny also practiced the Pledge of Allegiance and discussed the meaning behind it. Penny also learned and traced a poem about friendship.

Opened with a light dynamic stretch, followed by a light dynamic warmup. Penny and I played a color coordinated reaction game. The objective of the game is to move from one color to the next before the time runs out.
