It is hard to believe that December is already here! Thank you to all the families that participated in the Fresh from the Farm fundraiser and who joined us at the Black Walnut Movie Night last night. It is because of supportive families like you that we have such a fantastic school!
Here are some stories from the week...and one from last week!
Making Crayons
Friday afternoon we made our own crayons! We peeled the paper off old and broken crayons and put the pieces into a mold. Then we put them in the oven so they melted together. When the wax cooled we took the pieces out of the molds and had new crayons!
Book Fair
On Monday, we visited Ms. Dias in the library to see the book fair! There were so many books and we each got to choose 3 to go on our wish lists! Some students were so excited that they got to buy a book!
Sledding
After another great snow we went sledding again! We got some new green sleds and they go super fast! Ms. Boag, Ms. Ancona, and even Ms. A had a turn on the sleds too!!
We have no photos this week because we were too busy having fun!!
Making New Numbers
With Ms. A this week we learned about making new numbers! We used the sets on the dice and counted on to add the 2 dice together to make a new total.
Letter C
We opened another letter this week and it was the letter C. Each time we open a letter the Bluejays make predictions of what the letter may look like and we are starting to get very creative. We used to make 1 prediction and now we are making many!
Our Letter Cs were a cat and a caterpillar. I wonder what we will get next?!
Feeding Birds
We went back to the forest to check on bird feeders and we were so surprised!! Most of our bird feeders are gone, some are still there but empty, and only 3 are left with food on them! We talked together about where the bird feeders may have gone. Here are our predictions:
-They fell off the trees and into the snow
-A bird ate all the food and the string blew away
-An animal like a squirrel took them off the tree and took them home to eat
-They blew away
I Like Stories
We talked together about things that make us happy and the things that we like. We each made an I Like story and we are going to put them together to make a book.
Special Art!
Crock-a-Doodle came to our classroom on Friday and we all got to paint a special shape. The helpers are going to take them to a special oven to cook them - we are so excited to see how they look!
