2022 Week 2 ABCD, numbers 0-5, and bears!

 Hello, K Families!

First the sad news, we will not be able to take a field trip to the apple orchard this fall.  I am very disappointed but the time slots we needed were full.

However, I'm betting we are going to the FIRE STATION!  That will be just as fun!

It is so lovely for the k kids to see their kissing hand displayed! Thank you for sending these sentimental handprints in.


We have library every Monday.
Books are due back on Friday in their original book bag so your kiddo can get a new one when it is our library time.

We will do an activity daily on the smartboard!
What fun!

This week we had a bear theme.
We even talked about basic tracking of word as we read.  The k kids will have a page to read to you on Monday!

The snails have been a hit lately!

Everyday the kiddos start out the morning by signing in on our morning message. What fun!

We are creating an ABC book with a new page everyday. You will be able to see their artwork toward the beginning of November when they are finished!
Here we are getting ready to paint an AAAAapple!

Weren't these alligator purses the cutest!





These friends worked together to make some lovely creations!


Mrs. Heyer and Ms. K are two of our paras we see occasionally throughout the day.
The are working on shape sorting with the kids.  Eventually everyone will get a turn to work with these lovely ladies!

We began CENTERS on Tuesday!
This year we will only have centers on Tuesdays due to para shortages. Sigh.
But boy-o-boy, do we have a ton of fun on those days!
There will be 5 stations that each students cycles through in one hour.  It is a very busy time but I LOVE teaching this way! Yay for Tuesdays!
This week we had:
1. Rainbow Trace Name Practice...


2. Button ABC Cards


3. Brown Bear color sort and count (and eat!)


4. PlayDough fun
5. And a puzzle station

This little fella had to work alone for this station as the others were being tested. They joined him for the next station.


Here are the Aa Apples for our ABC book...


and our Bb bees...
 and the Cc cats...


and finally the Dd dinos! 



This is going to be a really cute book!

These friends are building a wonderful structure...they LOVE getting a photo of their creations!



We spend most of Thursday painting our 
BIG COLORFUL BEARS!









They will be in the hallway soon!

Didn't you just LOVE the little bears named Corduroy?


Thursdays are also for journaling.
We will create many books this year that your child will take turns bringing home to read with you.
They are called LUCKY DUCK books!
Enjoy them for the evening and return them the next day for the next child's turn.
Be looking for our first book called 
Brown Bear, Brown Bear!
