We hope you have had as
wonderful a week as we have had! The students seem so grown up nowadays!
This week some of our
learning included…
*investigating
the life cycle of a butterfly—our caterpillar has been in a chrysalis for a
while now, and this morning we noticed the skin was almost see through-within
the hour, our butterfly emerged! We are letting it go right after school. It is
beautiful, a “cheetah” butterfly according to the students!
*reflecting
on our Be Kind to Animals project…many of the students wanted to continue to
write and talk about our experiences. We are hoping the SPCA will be able to
come to the school soon to collect the money we raised and talk with us.
*we did a
lot of writing this week! Our last names, letters, words…the students were all
in.
*we also
did a lot with numbers and representing numbers with objects.
*and much, much, more!
REMINDERS / UPCOMING DATES
*Mango and Oreo Cookie: Please let me know if you would like to have the guinea pigs
over the Spring Break. Also let me know if you would like them over a weekend. J The students have been asking!
*Volunteering in the Classroom: I am copying the note about this on the e-mail sent. I won’t do a google sign up, since people have told me they prefer just
letting me know by e-mail. Fridays from 8:15 to 9:15 is the best time, but just
let me know if that doesn’t work and we can be flexible with other days and
times.
*March 16th and 17th:
Parent-Teacher Conferences—You should have received an e-mail from the
school explaining the process for these days. Please note that for Pre K, the
students do NOT attend the conferences (they are not student led) and the
conferences are 25 minutes and not an hour like the Elementary School. We will
have a celebration of learning near the end of the year where our students will
walk you through their learning journey books and some of the highlights of our
year.
*March 18-26th: Spring Break-No School
