FIVE LITTLE DUCKS WENT OUT TO PLAY!!!
You may notice a small plastic bag with yellow paper squares in your child's cubby today. Take a closer peek and you will see that the squares are actually little ducks!
We sang "Five Little Ducks" today in music classes and used the paper pieces and plastic bags as math/music manipulatives! Try singing the song with the pieces--pause during the song to consider math equations!
"5 subtract (or take away) 1 is....what?" Our younger students only used three ducks today (twos and below).
Don't know the tune? Check out the video below, though the version that we sang in class today is slightly different.
We also enjoyed seeing and hearing the recorder (instrument) and playing a fun "round the circle" game called "All Around The Village". Ask your child how they went "in and out the window" today! (Three years of age and up).
