Go Away Big Green Monster

We read the book Go Away Big Green Monster and made a monster glyph.

The color of the monster = favorite color
The number of hairs = how old you are
The color of your ears
Blue = you do not like scary movies
Green = you do like scary movies
The color of your mouth
red = you like Go Away Big Green Monster the best
pink = you like There is a Nightmare in My Closet the best




m & m Math

We estimated how many m & m's we could grab in a handful. Then we grabbed a handful and counted how many we really had.



We made and labeled m & m patterns.

This week, we learned about fair shares and fractions. We learned that to make a fair share, everyone has to have the same amount. We made fair shares with our m & m's.





We read The M & M Counting Book and made our own book of 100 m & m's. We made sets of 10 and added 10 sets of 10 together to make 100 m & m's.

Making Muffins

This week we celebrated the letter M. In honor of letter M, we read If You Give a Moose a Muffin and we made muffins. We learned about cumulative stories. We talked with partners about the events in the story and how they built on one another. Then we charted what we talked about. Finally, we made muffins and ate them! Yum, Yum!!
