Today was an exciting day! We released our beautiful butterflies into the wild. The children who wanted to hold them had a chance to and they were so amazed! It was so neat to see them flutter away into the sky.
Our word of the week is a VERY important one..."mom". We learned that this word is spelled the same way both forwards and backwards. We also reviewed the sound that an "m" makes. Please continue to practice letter recognition and sound association.
On Saturday evening, I will be sending all the moms an email with a very special attachment. Please let me know if you can not open it. The email will come from andrea.rocco@ocsb.ca.
