Narrative Report: October 6-11, 2008

Narrative Report
Period Covered: October 6-11, 2008
By Teacher Cristy

As we looked at our globe and atlas to begin our discussions about "united nations", Griffin was quick to read CHINA, as we looked at the different countries in asia. And as we looked at pictures of asians, europeans and africans, he became quite curious and started to ask his classmates "What does your mommy look like?' as quoted in our newsletter, he said "my mommy looks filipina, sometimes she looks chinese!" : )

He had no difficulty identifying #'s that come before, after and in between, as well as distinguishing between equal & not equal; he had a hard time though writing some numbers like 3, 2, 7, 5 which he wrote in reverse. When asked to draw objects to complete sets, he at first tried to draw some of it on his own but after a while asked teacher to help him.

It has been a while since we played in the sandbox so he was excited when we had sand play in relation to talking about the desserts in africa. He had no problems though about sharing the shovels and pails and taking turns but just got easily annoyed when he got stepped on or shoved.

P.S.
I hope you enjoyed watching Griffin perform during the U.N. day program. My reminder to him was to stay in place during the dance as during our practices he had a tendency to wander off in the middle of the presentation. : )
