Carlton Dairy Farm




Dear Parents,
Here are our pictures from the field trip.  The kids had such a great time!  For some reason (which I cannot figure out and have given up on...) my photos are showing from the end of our trip to the beginning!!!  Anyway, hope you enjoy!
Sincerely,

Week Eight




Dear Parents,
What a fun week!  We spent time learning about animal babies and their parents.  We enjoyed a snack sent in by Giancarlo's mom and we ended the week with a field trip!  This week we also learned that learning never stops!  Even during non-academic times (snack, centers, clean-up, pack-up) we learn how to share, take turns, and solve problems when the arise.  
Sincerely,

Week Seven

   
                                                      


Dear Parents,

This week we focused on Animal Characteristics.  We viewed a BrainPopJr. video on animals and categorized different animals by their covering.  In Math, we worked on finding patterns.  The kids have done a great job naming the patterns (ABAB, ABBABB, ABCABC). On Thursday, our Book Buddies helped us play a math game and read a mini math book!   In Reading, we worked at centers on identifying initial consonants, C-V-C words, and sorting alphabet letters.  We have earned several compliments for our hallway behavior!  Our Pompom Jar is almost full!  Pretty soon, we will get to choose a class reward for making good choices!
Sincerely,

Field Trip Reminder...



Hi Parents,
Our field trip to Carlton Dairy Farms is this Friday.  Please dress your child comfortably as we will be outside for the day.  I forgot to mention that if you are sending a lunch from home, it will need to be in a disposable lunch bag.  I will have a cooler if anything needs to be kept cold.  Please label items with your child's name.  If your child has an orange shirt, please wear it that day so that our class will be easily identified.  
Looking forward to a fun-filled day!
