Have a Great Vacation!

We had a lot fun this week learning about oral health. Thank you to Amazing Smiles Dentistry for visiting our class. We learned all about flossing and how we should brush at least two times a day.
When we get back to school we will focus on the works of Dr. Seuss and Eric Carle. We will also be preparing for our annual art show/exhibition night. This year it will be held on April 5th. More information will be coming soon!

In preparation for our art show we will be using various colored tissue paper and canning jars. If anyone has access to either of these items and would like to donate, please let Ms. Amanda know.

We hope you all have a fantastic vacation! See you in March.

Wash Those Germs Away!

This week we learned all about the importance of hand washing in our classroom.  All of our activities reinforced the importance of staying healthy at home and at school.

Nurse Libby came in to our classroom and shared some valuable information with us and showed us how a sneeze can spread everywhere if not properly covered.  Thank you Nurse Libby!


We also celebrated Valentine's Day by doing "friendship" activities. We had so much fun at our friendship party. Thank you parents for sending in the treats and valentines for the class. Here are some pics:

We Are Being Great Friends!!!

Our class is doing a fabulous job learning all about friendship!!! We have even started a friendship wall in our classroom where students names are placed when they show acts of kindness to others. 


We have been busy learning about sequencing as well. The kids are learning about first, next & last. This can be a tricky concept for some. Keep reinforcing at home.


Your child has also been working on the following:
                         *writing names
                         *name recognition
                         *counting to 10
                         *writing letters and numbers
                         *identifying shapes / drawing shapes
                         *one to one correspondence

Our Week

This week we learned all about Groundhog Day.  We had a lot of fun learning about shadows and light. We also worked on patterns and shapes.  Keep up the good work kids!

Next week we will talk about friendship and what it means to be a good friend to one another.  We will continue to work on shapes, colors, letters & numbers.  Also, we will keep practicing rhyming! It is fun to make rhymes.  Try it at home!

* If you haven't sent in your shoe box yet..don't forget.  We will start decorating them next week in preparation for our Valentine's/ friendship party.

We had so much fun tracing each other!
