Families are like trees because they are connected together and strong. Families are all unique and different. We read the book Me and My Family Tree by Joan Sweeney.
We created our own family tree. During this Invitation to Create, children made a tree to represent their family. They made decisions about how many branches, apples and what colors to include. We also played a Family Counting game. We took turns rolling the cube and pushing the same number of people sticks into play dough. We also clipped a clothespin on the matching counting card. For STEM we used family counters and blocks to build houses!
