This week we focused on sequential order. We studied this in science with the life cycle of a mealworm, in math with numeral order, and in games and puzzles with a days of the week card game, The Very Hungry Caterpillar and retelling a story. 
Exploring beetles: the mealworms final stage of life before laying eggs
We put story puzzles in sequential order and had to dictate the story to a teacher.
At Mrs. Williams table we complete the investigation: Do mealworms prefer vinegar or water? To start the experiment we had to find the mealworms in their habitat and place them in the center of our experiment box.
We were shocked to find out that our "mystery object", a mealworm, turned into a beetle. Several of us predicted it would turn into a butterfly.
We had such a fun time playing the card game, The Very Hungry Caterpillar. It was a big test to see if we could read the days of the week.
We enjoyed placing dominoes under "their" number. It was fun to see the different ways to "make" a number.
Shake and Roll!!~ A math game to practice reading dice
We listened to the story "The Grouchy Ladybug". It was also a fun way to practice telling time and studying sequential order.
Next week for snack, we will be eating different types of Mexican dishes.
We had so much fun finger painting large pictures in the art center. This was great practice for writing and illustrating a big book!
In the writing center, we put our number words in order, wrote them, and then had to draw objects to go with each number!
