Week of April 4th -7th

 It is hard to believe that this was our last full week of school before Spring Break! This week our theme was baseball to celebrate opening day of the MLB season! We started the week of with "Make yourself at home Monday" and wore our comfy clothes to school! We read "Pete the Cat: Play Ball". During center time, we used our thumb prints to make the laces of a baseball! On Tuesday, we had class color day and we all wore red! We read "Berenstain Bears: We Love Baseball". During center time, we continued working on our project from yesterday! We made handprint baseball gloves and glued on our fingerprint baseball from yesterday! Check them out as they are hanging on our windows in our classroom! On Wednesday, we had wear a jersey or outfit from your favorite sport or sports team. We read "Good Night Baseball". During center time, we made our very own baseball pennant! On Thursday, we celebrated Opening Day! We wore our Cardinals and Royals gear! We read "Luke Goes to Bat". During center time, we made our own foam fingers! We also got to eat hot dogs in our classroom thanks to Mr. Richard while watching Air Bud: Seventh Inning Fetch. On Friday, we had hat day to wrap up baseball week! We read "Dino-Baseball". During center time, we made thank you cards for Mr. Richard as he took the time out of his day on Thursday to grill hot dogs for us to celebrate opening day! I hope everyone has a great weekend and I will see you all on Monday for a great short week! Enjoy the photos from this week!

Week of March 28th-April 1st

This week we focused on the theme of flowers and butterflies! We spent the week focusing on numbers again! On Monday, we read "Seed to Plant". During center time, we made our very own coffee filter flowers! Check them out as they are hanging on our window in our classroom. On Tuesday, we read "Busy Butterfly". During center time, we colored coffee filters to make the wings of a butterfly. Once we were done coloring the coffee filter we sprayed them with water and let them dry! Once they were all dry, we clipped them into the butterfly body! On Wednesday, we read "Five Tough and Tiny Seeds". During center time, I worked with each student on their name. We focused on the letters in their name, building their name and tracing their name! On Thursday, we read "Butterfly Life Cycle". During center time, we made splat paint butterflies! They all did a great job of picking bright beautiful colors that went together really well! On Friday, we read "Planting Seeds". During center time, we got to play with play doh! Our class and Ms. Brittney's class played a prank on Mr. Richard to celebrate April fool's day! We  told him water was coming out of the bathroom but it was just our water bottles! I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and I will see you all on Monday! Next week our theme will be baseball to celebrate opening day on Thursday! I sent home a list of dress up days today for next week to celebrate the fun!
