Week 29-Spring!!

The week before spring break we learned about all things spring! We discussed flowers and how insects help to pollinate the flowers. We made flowers and used yellow chalk to pretend to be honey bees and "pollinate" the flowers! We also learned about animals in the Alabama woodlands we sometimes see. It was lots of fun. We were all ready for spring break. So glad we had great weather most of the time! The kiddos are rested up now and ready to learn.

Week 28 St Patricks Day and Dental Health

This week in our classroom we learned about St. Patrick's Day and Dental Health. I know that dental health is usually discussed in February but we couldn't fit it in until now! I didn't take lots of pictures because we had to get ready for report cards and I was not feeling very well. (Dr. visit on Friday, 2 shots) I have had several really sick kiddos too! Hope everyone feels better by Spring Break. Here are few pictures of our week. We all got a new toothbrush from Mrs. Ables and we brushed our teeth after lunch!

Week 27- Transportation!!

Our class learned about air, land and water transportation.  Monday we started off with air transportation and made paper airplanes to race. They did a wonderful job making the planes. Jorge is our class go to guy for making paper planes. Anyone who needed help got assistance from him! We had a great week and then on Friday we had transportation day! It was super!

Daddy Days, Dr. Seuss, and Presidents! Week Twenty Five and Twenty Six

Sorry about missing a week of updating our blog but I have had a difficult time taking pictures and teaching 
 now that Ms. Smith has gone to first grade! Week Twenty Five we learned about President's Day and famous people connected to the holiday.    Week Twenty Six was Dr. Seuss and Daddy Days. We had lots of fun reading Dr. Seuss books and making Oobleck! Check out the pictures below of our fun times. Emma's dad also came to Daddy Day but I didn't get his picture before he had to go to work! Thanks for everyone who came it was great!

This is a coin prediction sheet we used in our science and literacy center. I found this online at Kindergarten Hoppenings blog. She has the greatest stuff for free!
