The other day I overheard Shmuli telling a friend, "I know my last name!" I thought it would be a great excercise to see if he and others could actually WRITE thier last name. Below, Ofir is showing the Morah he did it!
Morah, I made and x-ray! (letter 'X' :)
Zalman wrote his last name on a dry erase board.
As a shopper was done shopping in the 'grocery store' Ayelet said, 'Hey you didn't pay.' The Morah suggested to Ayelet maybe adding prices will remind shoppers to pay. The Morah offered single digits but Ayelet wanted to price it at $100. It's a bit pricey but the produce does look good quality!
Each of the Yeladim circled the Hebrew letters in common with their name.
Binyamin is concentrating while writing out his invitation for the Children's Art Gallery.
As part of the Reggio Emilia Philosophy letters and numbers are set up as open opportunities all throughout the classroom inviting the children to engage. When children view reading and writing as a useful tool rather than just an academic exercise that they are forced to do, (in contrast to 'the letter a week approach') they are much more motivated to learn, and learning happens much more
organically.
The Yeladim are still facinated with the frozen sheet of ice at the bottom of our outdoor box. If you heard your child tell you they went ice skating today this is what they are referring to! It was so popular the Yeladim were waiting for turns to go (in their words) Ice skating.
