click here to schedule your appointment with me! It is important to note that our meeting will only be 10 short minutes, and due to the number of parents I will be meeting with, things tend to run behind. If you would prefer to meet on a different day either before or after school please don't hesitate to reach out. I am more than happy to accommodate you!
Curriculum Update:
Pumpkin Fun!
Thursday was a spectacular time for science and math as we participated in some pumpkin fun! We began our exploration by learning about the parts of a pumpkin and the pumpkin life cycle. All of this learning culminated in an exciting activity that involved opening and exploring a real pumpkin!
Seed counting was another exciting (and gooey!) part of our pumpkin exploration. We were shocked to learn that our pumpkin had 392 seeds! That's A LOT of seeds!
Into Reading
Last week we completed Module 2 in our Into Reading program as we read the books Tiny Rabbits Big Wish and My Friends as we continued to answer the question: What makes each of us special? We also continued to review synonyms and antonyms, and identified the problem and solution in the stories we read.
Fundations
Last week in Fundations the children learned about the letters d and s. We also practiced reading the sight words "if" and "on". Our color of the week was black!
We continue to practice labeling during Writer's Workshop! Last week the class had a great time labeling the classroom, and ME!
Thanks so much for taking a peek at our week! Please check back soon to watch us learn, grow, and play in the wonderful world that is K! 🍎📖🚌
