April Showers

Sharing:  Winnie the Poohs

Speech & Language:  This week we will practice the initial /s/.  Our craft will be making a Snake Charmer and our snack of Snickerdoodle cookies will be contributed by Virginia.         
The April showers didn't dampen our spirits Friday as we ventured out on our field trip to America's Teaching Zoo at Moorpark College.  We had a great time despite the drizzly weather and the the kids enjoyed both the animal show and seeing the animals up close.  A big thank you to Amy, Suzanna,, Holden, Brie, Emily for attending the trip and helping so much with the children!
A couple of changes for Speech & Language:  we will be switching the lessons for 4/19 & 4/26.  Please make this change on your Speech & Language calendars.

This week we will be meeting the Letter Person Ms. W and her wonderful words.  What a perfect Letter Person to meet as the children become better readers and writers!  The children are so inspired to learn sight words and are making great progress.  We will continue our Language Arts program practicing rhyming words, writing, word work, integrating technology and playing learning games to reinforce our Common Core standards.

Question of the Day:  Have you been hearing about the Question of the Day, or perhaps helping your child read the question when they arrive at school in the morning?  Every day I will put up a different question with the answer choices.  This is an activity that incorporates reading and math graphing skills.  The children enjoy discovering the question each morning and putting their name on the felt board under their answer choice.  We discuss it as a group each morning.

STEM-The Three Billy Goats Gruff.  On Thursday we will conduct another STEM project, this time, related to the story of the Three Three Billy Goats Gruff. The children will work together to build a bridge that will support all three goats so they won't fall off into the hands of the mean troll under the bridge!

Our schedule this week will be:
Monday:  P.E., yoga, Council
Tuesday:  Speech & Language, Art Trek
Wednesday:  P.E. Planet Bravo, Let's Find Out! magazine, Second Step
Thursday:  S.T.E.M. science project
Friday:  Morning Assembly, Sharing, Homework Review, Library, Big Buddies

Thank you for all of your help in Room K!
Mrs. W.

Hi Amy, I am so sorry to ask this, but is the special snack on Monday or Tuesday? I recall it being Tuesday, also because we get our sound of the week homework on Tuesdays. Either way I'm slightly panicking that I better start baking cookies now ;p I apologize for sounding so spacey, my brain is wiped after an urgent care visit for a smashed toddler toe today ;(
