We had such a fun Friday! Rowdy, the mascot for the Dallas Cowboys, came to Spears to talk about teamwork. He invited several of our students onstage to cheer and dance. Check out my pictures!
This week we wrapped up our unit on the 5 Senses. Next week we will add "green" and "me" to our Word Wall. We're also learning about community helpers and their responsibilities. We'll be creating a flipbook on these helpers and reading different books about them throughout the week. In Science we'll be learning about different patterns, and in Math, we'll focus on shapes, numeral formation and continue to explore sorting. Another homework sheet will go home on Monday with questions about birthdays, shapes, colors and community helpers - our big unit for next week!
The ABC quilt squares are so creative! I hope you had lots of fun doing these with your children. I'll post a pick as soon as we put it up on our wall.
One last thing for this week...we are continuing to take sanitary precautions around the room. Please help me out by visiting with your children about coughing and sneezing into their elbows instead of their hands. You might want to mention something about playing with their teeth as well. The children were working very hard this week on their "loose" teeth. I'm not convinced everyone has a loose tooth, but they sure want one! We had a discussion about not "helping" our friends pull their teeth and how germs can spread when we put our hands in our mouths. Oh, how they can't wait for the Tooth Fairy!
Enjoy the weekend with your family! I'll be adding to the blog very soon with some answers to more of your questions. I hope you are finding these helpful as we start our year!
