Hi families, I have some catching up to do! ABC countdown is so much fun but very tiring. I’ve gotten a little behind on our page a day blogging so I’m going to get caught up in one big post! D was for dinosaurs and dolls. We had share time to tell about the things we brought for the day. Our dolls provided some giggles as they crawled, talked, and even went potty! We spent the rest of our day doing research and labeling diagrams about different dinosaurs. Jonah’s mom even stopped by to do a fantastic lesson on paleontologists and how they excavate dinosaur bones. She even had a few real bones for us to hold! What a treat! E was for Earth. We learned what it means to be green and take care of our planet. We also had to finish up some of our dinosaur activities and make our own fossils! F was for field trip. We went to the Smyrna Bowling Center and received a behind the scenes look at how the machines work! The kids said f was also for fun and fall (we had a few bumps during the day). Our lady bug larvae and caterpillars also came on letter f day to add to the fun! We tried out our new broadcasting equipment from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation too. Microphones sure are fun in helping us practice our speaking skills! G was for games and grandparents (with some other family members too)! This has to be one of our favorite events as a class. The kids just love having their families here at school. We also had concession stand and house meetings to add to the busy day! Our technology coach also delivered 5 new laptops for our class. It is very exciting to add more technology opportunities to our classroom! So that was how we spent our incredibly eventful week! The fun just keeps coming as we near the end of our school year. I’m going to be sad to see summer come because we have such a great time together! -Mrs. Smith

Hi families, Today we finished up some leftover letter B activities and enjoyed a delicious letter C! Mrs. Honey helped us bake up some yummy confetti cake cookies. Hot out of the oven and gooey goodness. We also read a favorite story of a funny little mouse who keeps wanting a long list of things after getting a cookie. Tomorrow we will compare to another one of Laura Numeroff’s books that goes perfectly with letter D! -Mrs. SmithHi families, We had a fun day reading some of our favorite books together and learning all about bubbles! Did your little one ask you if bubbles are clear? We learned the words iridescent and evaporation. There was so much to learn and explore that we will have to finish up letter B on Monday and then dive right in to our letter C fun! -Mrs. SmithHi families, The countdown to summer has begun. Our ABC countdown is exciting and fun but also bittersweet. I’ve grown to love these little ones and will be sad to send them on to my first grade teacher friends! Today we talked about Hawaii. We learned about the hula, traditions behind leis, and even listened to Elvis sing Blue Hawaii! There were also some amazing green screen pictures. Our beach towels had to be used inside due to the frigid temperatures outside. Definitely not aloha beachy weather! -Mrs. Smith |
