This week we started our transportation unit. We talked about traffic signs, what they mean and the different shapes. We made traffic lights and learned that red means stop and green means go and some said yellow means speed up to make it through the light! Just kidding!
For literacy the kids selected a shape sheet and they wrote words and drew pictures using the Sign Poster to copy the sign. They did a great job drawing and writing.
We learned all about bridges and they must be built strong enough to hold heavy weight and to survive earthquakes, strong winds and extreme temperatures. We experimented with blocks and then made bridges using toothpicks and marshmallows. They also enjoyed eating a few marshmallows while creating their bridge!
We built roads and learned roads are paths to help people know where to go. Roads are made out of rocks, dirt and concrete. They built their own roads using, sand, glue, pencils and stickers to add a few more details!
And finally, we did some rhyming.
