Week of April 29th- May 3rd

It is hard to believe that we are looking towards the last two weeks of school! This week we talked about the zoo, learned the letter Zz, the number 1, the color black and the shape of a triangle. On Monday, we read "Never Play Music Right Next to the Zoo". On Tuesday, we read "Animal Strike At the Zoo". On Wednesday, we read "The Monkey Who Saved the Zoo". On Wednesday, we also got together with Miss Jay's friends and made brownies. Miss Jay taught all of us, including me, how to make brownies fluffy! Since we had so many brownies left over, we walked around the school and offered them to teachers and staff. We worked on talking with adults that are beyond our building, asking questions and using a big strong voice when we are talking to someone. I know a lot of them were nervous but they did such a great job! On Thursday, we read "Never, Ever Shout in a Zoo". On Friday, we celebrated our pajama day and had a special treat! We also had a fun PE class with Miss Jay's friends! We did yoga and ran around the gym in our socks! I started their report card assessing this week and was able to slowly get through them all as the week went on! I am so proud of how much progress these little ones have made this school year! I excited for the fun that we are all going to have the next couple of weeks as we wrap up this school year! I hope everyone has a great weekend! I will see you all on Monday! Enjoy the photos from the week!

Week of April 15-19th

This week we focused on learning about all different weather. We focused on the letter Ww, the number 10, the color black and the shape of a rectangle. On Monday, we read "Once There Was a Rain Drop". During center time, the kiddos worked on writing the letter Ww! They have grown so much with their writing from their pencil grips to actually writing and tracing the letters. On Tuesday, we read "Magic School Bus: Wild Weather". During center time, the kiddos colored a rain boot and then we poured blue paint on half a piece of paper, closed the paper and rubbed the paint around to make a puddle! On Wednesday, we met up with our 8th grade buddies and went to church with the whole school. I am so proud of how well these little ones do at church. On Thursday, we read "One Rainy Day". During center time, the kids worked on writing their names by writing each letter onto one sunbeam to create a sun name! On Friday, we had fun Friday with Ms. Massman's second grade class joining us for a dance battle and playing with the parachute! What a fun week! I hope you enjoy the photos from the week! I will see you all on Monday!
