This week in Mrs. Hayne’s pre-K classroom the students have been learning about the letter W. Mrs. Haynes surprised her students this morning by bringing in 2 large watermelons. Before the students got to bite into this healthy snack, they had several different learning experiences.
The students began by describing the outside of the watermelon with words such as: green, yellow stripes, long, and heavy. Mrs. Haynes then cut it open to show the students the “meat”. They described the inside as red, white, black seeds and wet (better know as juicy). Next, a circle was sliced and then sliced in half and in half again. WOW…talk about a great math lesson!
The students then enjoyed this juicy snack. Mrs. Haynes wrapped up the lesson with a good ole fashion seed spitting contest. Can you believe a girl won with 8ft 2 ½ inches! What a wonderful way to learn about the letter W!
