We had another great week!  

Monday was full of excitement as we talked about brushing our teeth and having healthy habits like drinking enough water, exercising, brushing our teeth, brushing our hair, eating healthy food,  washing our hands, etc.  We also talked about the letter L, read our L book, used Handwriting Without Tears to practice our L formation, went to P.E. and Music and enjoyed playing in Mrs. Snyder's classroom for recess.

 Wednesday was just as much fun. We had our reading buddies visit us today.  We used marbles to paint red hearts, watched how to mix white and red to make pink and practiced writing our names.  We received a goody bag and water bottle from my friend-Sheri Love- from Love Dentistry.  It couldn't be more fitting because "L" is for Love.  

Friday we read I Will Never Not Ever Eat a Tomato and talked about trying new foods and eating healthy ones.  We also ran an experiment today with LIZARDS.  We observed the lizards changing color with warm and ice cold water.  Each child got a lizard to take home and run the experiment for you.  We also talked about the life cycle of a ladybug and put our sheets in order from 1 to 4.  

Letter this next week is V.  We will be having a "V"eterinary clinic for stuffed animals set up in the classroom on Friday so please have your child bring a small stuffed animal that they can work on.  :)
Monday please have your child wear a bandana for the fun event Mrs. Wagner will have in P.E.  If you have signed up for Read and Romp on March 12th, Mrs. Wagner will be contacting you soon.

Have a wonderful weekend!!!  Thanks for sharing your kids with me!

Your kids are growing so quickly!  What a blessing it is to see them engaged and learning! Monday-we learned about the letter C, read our C book and If You Give a Cat a Cupcake .  We made leprechaun hats for our Read and Romp banner and learned about opposites with our  stuffed cat. We also worked on letter formation with dry erase boards so we can erase and try  over and over again. Wednesday-we traced our heart sheet, practiced writing our names,  had a cookie shop where we served pretend cookies and cinnamon rolls to learn  about our hard c and soft c letter sounds, and practiced our numbers with paint and our fingers. Have a wonderful weekend! Initially our sheet says we will review the letters from this month but since the children know them so well,  we will review previous letters taught before January. We will review the letters E(Monday), F(Wednesday) and G(Friday). Should be fun to find your letter for  show and tell based on your day. ;)
