@east_enrichment Today my artists cut apart a perfect square, then after reading Perfect Square by Michael Hall, they created something with their pieces. So much fun to see what they made! @24Kath@CZawatson#proudtobeLB
Fall Fun! This week our Shared Reading was a How-To that taught us how to carve a Jack-o-lantern. Then we just had to try for ourselves, following the steps! Great way to prepare for our upcoming writing unit! @24Kath@CZawatson @LorraineRadice1 #ProudtoBeLB
Ways to make 10 reinforced in a fun way! The children used ten frames and counters, as well as classroom charts, to find the different ways to Make 10. Then they listed 8 different ways on the legs of these fun spiders! @24Kath@CZawatson#proudtobeLB
First day of East Elementary Enrichment and we had a great time! We listened to Big Pumpkin and made predictions along the way. Then it was time to begin painting! @24Kath@CZawatson@east_enrichment#ProudtoBeLB
After reading Leo Lionni’s “It’s Mine”, we talked about the author’s message and what we can learn from this book. Then we did some Interactive Writing and finally worked together to create this artwork! Amazing collaboration from these children! @24Kath@CZawatson#ProudtobeLB
Today we celebrated Dot Day! We then did some watercolor painting of dots. We talked about how when we see our dot art hanging up we will be reminded that we CAN do the things we set our minds to! @24Kath@CZawatson@LBSchoolsNY#ProudtoBeLB
