We practiced making letter U with Play-Doh! We also read books about words that start with U. After we read about letter U, we wrote about things that start with letter U in our writing journals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also learned about the Gingerbread Man! The Gingerbread Man is a fun story to read to kids! We read, \u201cThe Gingerbread Man,\u201d by Eric Kimmel and, \u201cThe Gingerbread Girl,\u201d by Lisa Campbell Ernst. We talked about the characters in the story, as well as the problems. The students increased their gross motor skills by dancing like gingerbread men and pretending to chase after the Gingerbread Man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Gingerbread Man Dance and Freeze | Jack Hartmann | Holiday Freeze Dance\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/u9kec_lZDMw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Gingerbread Man Chase! - Christmas PE Game\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uIrQy66hQ-Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The students practiced their fine motor skills by weaving string through gingerbread men and decorating them! They also practiced measuring gingerbread men with Unifix cubes. This helped introduce basic measuring skills, as well as supported their one-to-one correspondence counting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/lawsonj\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3391\/2021\/12\/IMG_3281-rotated.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/lawsonj\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3391\/2021\/12\/IMG_3281-rotated.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/lawsonj\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3391\/2021\/12\/IMG_3281-rotated.jpg 480w, https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/lawsonj\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3391\/2021\/12\/IMG_3281-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3392\/2021\/12\/IMG-3571-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3392\/2021\/12\/IMG-3571-1024x529.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-142\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dearborn Public Schools\u2019 Emotional Support Hotline<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201d The Dearborn Public Schools is offering an emotional support hotline in order to provide support to students, families, and staff who are experiencing anxiety , fear, and stress.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need any emotional and\/or mental support, please contact the district\u2019s emotional support hotline at (313) 827-8500 or email: dss@dearbornschools.org<object data=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3392\/2021\/12\/Dearborn-Schools-Emotional-Support-Hotline.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" name=\"fitvid3\"><\/object><a href=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3392\/2021\/12\/Dearborn-Schools-Emotional-Support-Hotline.pdf\">Dearborn-Schools-Emotional-Support-Hotline<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3392\/2021\/12\/Dearborn-Schools-Emotional-Support-Hotline.pdf\">Download<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Helpful Links\/Websites:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Cotter Early Childhood Center:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/cotter.dearbornschools.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/cotter.dearbornschools.org\/<\/a><\/li><li>Salina Elementary School:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/salinaes.dearbornschools.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/salinaes.dearbornschools.org\/<\/a><\/li><li>Michigan Licensing Rules for Childcare Centers:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.michigan.gov\/documents\/lara\/BCAL_PUB_8_3_16_523999_7.pdf\">https:\/\/www.michigan.gov\/documents\/lara\/BCAL_PUB_8_3_16_523999_7.pdf<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Published in<a href=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\/category\/blogs\/\">Blogs<\/a>Previous Post<a href=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\/2021\/11\/30\/ppac-and-lahc-forms\/\">PPAC and LAHC Forms<\/a>No Newer Posts<a href=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\">Return to Blog<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Published by Mrs. Lawson\u00a0on\u00a0December 3, 2021 Hello Room 107 Families, I hope you all had a wonderful break last week and I hope you rested well!
