I want to send out a huge THANK YOU to my whole class and their parents/guardians for a wonderful birthday! I was so surprised and truly had a great day. I was also very impressed at how well the kids used the calender so they were the ones who informed their parents. I have such a great class!
Cold season is approaching fast and our classroom supply of hand sanitizer is getting low. If you're looking for a way to help the class, we could really use any that you find on sale! Also, as you use eggs at home and empty the egg cartons, I could use those for some math activities. Our school is also collecting pop tops for McDonald House, so as you pull those off soup cans, pops, etc. please send those in. For every pop top collected, McDonald House donates .01 for sick kids. We also have a basket in our room to collect Silent Auction items. Thanks ahead of time for anything you can donate!
This week we worked on a new letter, "c" with many activities. Kids described topics beginning with the letter "c" in their writing journals, as well as brainstormed "c" words. We explored how to make leaf rubbings and worked on matching color words to the rubbed leaves. These rubbing papers will provide the backgrounds to the descriptive writing about leaves to be put on display in the hallway. If you are unable to stop by the hallway outside of our class, pictures of both this display as well as the Ten Apples Up On Top display will be posted soon on this blog.
Are any of the kids photographers? When you go on hikes or walks, do the kids like to take pictures? As the seasons change and we see such spectacular sights in Colorado, feel free to send pictures the kids take to my email address! I would like to make a slide show on this blog illustrating the seasons as seen through the kids' eyes.
