Week of Feb 25th


Our letter of the week is "d" and our word of the week is "do".  The students loved singing our poem "Do You Like Broccoli" and finding all the 'do's in the poem. 

Last week we finally cut into our eggs and were amazed and grossed out at what came out of them.  Some friends were very disappointed that a baby chick never popped out!  The kids made amazing observations before cutting into the 2 eggs.  See the pictures below.  Many wanted to touch the hardened yoke and were very interested in looking at the eggs with the magnifying glasses. 

Today we worked on measurement and counting with dinosaurs and cubes.  The kids drew pictures of their dinosaur and added numbers and words to their work.  Their job was to measure and count how long their dinosaur was using cubes.

In the afternoon, we looked at 4 snowmen and wrote down what was different between them.  It was our version of a "Spot the Difference" activity.  The children were so good at finding everything and they seemed to really enjoy doing it.

Please ensure that your child continues to bring their winter gear (snow pants, hat, gloves) as we still go out for 30 minutes in the morning and 20 minutes at lunch.
