Sailing with the Mayflower in Ganon Bet

In Ganon Bet we discussed different sizes. We brought that discussion to the sails on the Mayflower. Which size sail helped the boat more quickly. The children became the wind by blowing through straws. Ask us who won the race.

Math Fun in Ganon Bet

Math in Pre-K is all about fun and games! To learn about sets and subsets, we drew three different colored circles and placed different colored bears in each circle. We sorted the bears into groups based on size and color. We then grouped ourselves according to the color of our clothes, eyes and hair color. We were able to establish multiple sets based on these categories. It was so much fun!

The children in Ganon Bet rolled the die and matched up the numbers on the die with the numbers on the snowmen. They were very excited to see who would fill in all the snowmen first and win the game.

Sailing with Different Size Sails in Ganon Bet

How does the wind move things? Will a boat move faster if its sails are small, medium, large? These are questions that the children sought to answer as they experimented with toy boats in a tray of water. They blew air through straws and raced the boats! Ask your children what we found out!
