Exciting Opportunity: The Lucky Ducks were able to attend a performance of Music Man performed by the high school. Great job to all!
OWL Unit 4 Week 5
This week we finished “The World of Color” unit. Children will learn about color: color names, color mixing, staining, fading, camouflage and color patterns. Stories for this unit include, a story about a dog that stains his white coat, a lion who paints pictures, a boy who gets special letters from his grandmother, and a rabbit who wants to buy a special shirt. Children will increase their vocabulary about color and explore colors and patterns directly. We will continue to learn about letters and sounds, including rhyming words. Here are the theme concepts for this unit:
- Color is one thing that makes our world beautiful. Talk about different colors you can see in your child’s environment
- Color can vary information
- Paints and dyes are used to color other things and are mixed up to make new colors.
- Different substances can cause stains of different colors
- Sun and washing often bleach colors, making them fade
- Color is an identifying feature of many natural things.
