Valentine's Day Preparations



 Guided Reading: Our Solar System
Using all that we have learned to read about each planet!


Math Centers
1) Valentine's Measurement- side to side, or top to bottom. How many hearts tall/wide is each object?



 


2) Count and Match the number sets- recognizing random numbers to 10



 3) Roll the Dice, cover the matching number on the Mat- "Subitizing"





4) Valentine Graphing- cut, sort and glue. Which object has the most? How do you know?
"I can see"
 "It has four"
 "The others have 1, 2, 3"
 "4 is the biggest"



Science- Balloon Rocket


 Prediction- What will happen when I let go of the balloon?

 "It will fly around the room", "no, it will travel down the string"


 What will happen if I blow the balloon up just a little bit?

"It didn't make it all the way!", "It didn't have enough force!"


 Paper Mache continued- Pluto, Neptune and Uranus




 Art- Painting Flowers with celery stamps











Shared Reading Poem- I Like Hearts
Words to find/recognize- I, like, you


Fun Friday Math
Estimate- How many marbles (planets) are in the jar. 
What is an estimation? 
"a guess"
"a number"

We separated the marbles into two groups and then counted by 2s!
Half the marbles was 20.
Did we make a good estimate?
The other half was 22.
Total marbles- 42


Sequencing the mixed up numbers.
Find your spot to stand.



Leaving a space! They knew there were numbers missing in between 3 and 6. 



Counting and checking the correct order.



Decorating our Valentines Bags...
