Having some fun with CHALK!!!
Hello Pete the Cat!
This week is all about our favorite cat, "Pete the Cat". The students listened to many different stories including, "Pete the Cat and HIs Four Groovy Buttons" and a read along, "I Love my White Shoes". We made our very own groovy t-shirts and had fun stacking as many buttons as we could in our Play-Doh towers.
Please have the students continue working on writing their names at home. Remind them that "we always start our letters at the top".
We thank you for sharing your children with us each and every day!
OUR LITTLE ARCHITECTS!
This week is building week. Students are learning different building techniques: bricklayer, symmetry, tall/long, and stack-it. We started by practicing these techniques with blocks, then the students made a blueprint of what they wanted to build, and on Friday we put our plans to action! The students constructed what they drew in their blueprints using their newly learned building techniques.
