Week 2...Nursery Rhymes, Sunflowers, and Sorting

Last week we learned and illustrated 5 Nursery Rhymes...

Hickory Dickory, Jack and Jill, Mary had a Little Lamb,

Hey Diddle Diddle, and Humpty Dumpty.

The kiddos really are great direction followers!

Our morning message also included a bit of Nursery Rhyme fun.

Our Math lessons included sorting shapes.

We are doing super on this skill, too!

We were scientists this week and used magnifiers to discover SUNFLOWERS
