Miss Pat decided it was time for some new computer games about vocabulary words. She made up two games on put them on every “Can Do” Kid’s computer.
Why not join the “Can Dos” and play the vocabulary games. Just go to the “Can Do” Club House, Choose games and then choose, “Things we See.”
Coach Campbell visited the “Can Do” Kids classroom to encourage each “Can Do” to take up a sport if they didn’t already play a sport.He began by going around the room and asking each “Can Do” what sport they played or would like to play. Then he talked about a sport they could play through the school athletics program and what sport they might like to try that the recreation center sponsored.
Some of the kids said they played softball. Others said they played soccer. Some didn’t play any sports, but said they would like to learn about different sports in the hopes they would learn about a sport that would interest them.
The “Can Dos” were so surprised to see that there was a sport or two, or three or four that they didn’t recognize.
Miss Pat is always looking for ways to get the class excited about math. She made a new math game and put it on each computer.
Why not try it out? The class thought it was fun.
Just got to the “Can Do” Club House, choose games, then choose counting by 10’s.
The trip was sponsored by the “Can Do” Street Community Center. Some of the members of the Seniors Club went along as chaperons. Since some of the members of the Seniors Club kept flower gardens, they made excellent tour guides.
Once at the Botanical Gardens, the “Can Dos” were broken up into small groups of four. Each group had a senior tour guide.
When they got back to school after the break, Miss Pat asked the “Can Dos” that went on the trip to share with the rest of the class about what they saw and what they learned.
That evening, Miss Pat decided to make a matching game about spring flowers. Well, it was tough, because not all the class was familiar with the names of the flowers and how to spell their names. Miss Pat had to help out more than usual with this matching game.
Guess who did the best. Nope, not Orrie. It was Willie. How come? Well, he helps his grandpa, Grandpa Dooley, plant and care for his flower garden, so he knew the names of all the flowers.
Miss Pat noticed the “Can Dos” were getting tired of all the counting exercises she was giving them to do. She decided to make a few counting games they could do on the computer.The counting games were not as easy to do as the “Can Dos” thought they would be but they were more fun than doing counting problems on paper.
Guess who was first to finish the counting games and to get them right? Nope, not Orrie but Annie. She is really good at counting!
