Seuss. After reading, I will have the children do a math activity where they will begin sorting out the goldfish into their color groups, then have them to count by the different colors. Last I will have them put the fish on their bar graph. I would ask if the children had any questions. I would then ask the children to sort the fish into their color groups. We would discuss the different colors if they were missing colors that their friends had. Once fish was sorted into color groups, I would tell them to go ahead and count the number of redfish that they had, and then I would help them, or they would write the number down on the red fish on their graph. We would do this step for each of the colors until we had done every color possible.

Once everyone finished with their graph, we would all bring them to circle time where we would discuss how many they each had, which colors they had the most of, which colors they had the least. The graphs would then be hung on the bulletin board for everyone to …show more content…

They will be instructed that they will choose a color to paint their left foot first. They will then be told to put their footprint on their paper. Then we will paint our right foot and place it on the paper. After they are done with their feet prints, they will clean their feet off and then paint with brushes to add to their photo. They will then move to group tables where all of their supplies are. During creation, I will go around the room providing
