Friday Update April 1

Hi Parents!
It has been another busy week of learning and exploring! We started some new projects, had guests in our class, and had a lot of fun! Thank you to Hudson’s mom Tiffany and Jasper’s grandparents Laura and Fred for coming in to do potions and reading and building.  We had Ms. Alexis in our class on Tuesday (she is doing a degree in Early Education) and the kids LOVED her!  We also had our counselor Mr. Pearson come in on Wednesday to talk about being safe. ( I sent an e-mail with the links earlier this week.)

Our cuties have been falling sick--be sure they get lots of rest this weekend :-)

Our explorations and activities included…
*We watercolor painted on our mirror table!
*We continued on our love of Mo Willems books by doing some artwork and writing and reading inspired by his books. At one point I had 8 kiddos around me clamoring to draw and write pages!!!
*Some of our students started a new maker space project—they are still in discussions about what they are planning, but it took off! 
*Another set of cuties were inspired by some maps I brought in from the spring break and started making their own HUGE one.
*We talked a lot about our spring breaks—the kiddos wanted to share all about what happened on their breaks!
*There was a lot of building, of rocket ships, airplanes, apartment blocks, train stations, mailboxes…
*We played alphabet and math games and practiced writing some simple words.
*And much, much more…(be sure to look at the pictures on the blog! J It is a good way to talk about the week with your cutie!)


REMINDERS/IMPORTANT DATES
*Please return the red library bag and books on Monday!!
