We read the book Grandfathers Journey. This book wraps up our month about the Asian content. The gentlemen in this book travels from Japan to America. Lily and Aj loved the story and the pictures. Here are the activities we did along with the book. Social Studies(geography,culture of Japan, California )- We colored a map of Japan and learned that Japan is an island. We tryed writing with Japanese characters and we ate peanutbutter,jelly and marshmallows sandwiches shapped like Sushi.We read and learned about California too! Mathematics(counting,calendar,days in a week)-we used our calendars to determine what day,month and year it is. Lily and Aj counted how many days in the week. We also used block counters to find out how many days grandfather was on the boat to California. They counted 21 days, which equals 3 weeks.We also read a book about the days of the week. Science(land forms,habitats,biomes)- We learned about different land forms including islands and volcanoes. We used playdough to make an island, mountain and forest. Here are some books and a movie we watched. Art(origami)- we folded paper into bowls. Then we ate a snack out of it!!
