Beach Party and Bugs!

Some things to know/remember:
  • Early dismissal at 11:25 on Thursday, April 17th. 
  • No school on Friday, April 18th or on Monday, April 21st.  Have a great Easter! :)
  • We are collecting canned/boxed food for the food pantry if you would like to donate.
  • If you are questioning it in the morning, just send your child to school with a jacket or hoodie. Spring weather can be crazy and unpredictable.
  • The Personal Safety talk that notes were sent home about is coming up next Wednesday.  The gal who does the talk is fabulous- it is very appropriately geared towards their age level. 
  • Next week we are studying natural resources and our footprint on the earth.  This will lead into Earth Day on Tuesday, April 22nd, where we will have some fun activities planned.
  • Look for your child to have some new sight words coming home on his/her ring.  They are colored orange. :)  These words are:  saw, she, went, they, there.
  • I absolutely LOVE the new classroom management system.  The kids have something to work towards-- it is making a huge difference in the classroom.  Please let me know if you have any further questions!

BUG TIME  
We have been learning all sorts of things about insects this week.  Although I an not a huge fan of bugs in general, it is one of my favorite units.  :)

We had ants in our pants!!  It was a fun math addition game. :)


We made "ants on a log."



I made this fun "Entomology Bag" for recess.  Inside were many things to help us collect and study bugs!  We ended up catching a lot! :)












We caught one! :)



Until next time! :)
