Jan. 27th- Feb. 2nd
In February we are learning about caring for others and showing kindness. To kick off the theme we have a Pet Vet Clinic in our dramatic play! They are all loving the new clinic!
We read the book ABC’s of Kindness. It gave us lots of examples of how to show kindness to people around us. They quickly realized that they already show kindness in some of the same ways as in the book.
On Tuesday we focused on Purple. We made our list of things that are purple and then read the book Purple: Seeing Purple All Around Us. Purple was a bit harder for them but they did a great job. Next week we will start working on our Purple Art Books!
We have been working on name recognition and placing the letters of their names in correct order. Recognizing their name in print provides them independence when finding their name tags and other items without assistance. It also helps build their confidence when learning their own name as well as recognizing their friends' names. We will continue to create projects with their names.
A name puzzle will be coming home next week. It is a winter hat they colored and then we laminated it and added a name puzzle with velcro dots.
Thank you to everyone that came to Prayers & Pancakes. Everyone LOVED going to the gym to eat like the big kids. They talked about it all morning!
I was so excited to see so many of you at Family Night last night!
Valentine Party: Tuesday, February 14th at 10 a.m. We will be having a small Valentine’s Day party in our classroom. We will have a snack, some games & activities.
Each child may bring Valentines to pass out to the class. We have 12 students. Please write your child's name next to “From” and leave the “To” space blank. This makes for a lot less confusion when passing them out.
We will decorate bags at school that will be used to collect Valentines from each other.
