Hello! We are finally starting to feel like we are in a routine! We are excited that October is here. Our room is already in the holiday spirit. We finished up our quick apple unit. Ask your child about the red house that has no windows or doors but has a chimney and star inside!
We did a special Superhero project as we took some time to focus on what makes us special. We turned ourselves into superheroes...we actually flew ;)! We learned about adjectives as we picked out ones that described us. We made a class Superhero Book. Some brought their's home today but others wanted to keep them in their book boxes for a little while longer to read here. We used the book Quick as a Cricket by Don and Audrey Wood as a format for our story. Ask your child about it.
We were Super Scientists and did our first experiment of the year. We predicted what would happen when we put Skittles in warm water. We then observed and described what happened. We were surprised to see that the color dissolved faster than the letter S.
Next week we will be using our Wishy Washy big books to create another classroom book. We will also be learning about fire safety.
A reminder that we eat breakfast/snack at 9:15 each day. Primary students do not eat when they arrive because they do not have lunch until 12:00.
