The Great Number 8!!!

Today we learned the number 8. I was very impressed with how well each of them wrote them on the board.

I really try to encourage them to draw 8’s on the worksheet. I have been encouraging good effort by putting a sticker on the page after they draw one by themselves. They are all doing such a great job, and have grown so much in the last few months!

Then we sang “The Itsy Bitsy Spider” to introduce our craft project. We made spiders for two reasons:

  • 1-Because spooky spiders are such a huge part of Halloween.
  • 2- Because (most) Spiders have 8 legs!

My huge motive with this craft was to work on scissor skills. I have had to make a few adjustments with our curriculum while we work on them. This was a good way for them to try and cut a strait line.

Miss Sayla had snack today. They all love handing out the treats.

At the end of the day, I had the kids practice writing their names. I have made each of them laminated name cards that they trace with dry erase markers. They are fun, and it makes them excited to see themselves accomplish something so huge!
