Today we were lucky to have 3 local firefighters visit our school. They taught us lots about how to stay safe and prevent fires. We also talked about what to do if there is a fire in our home. The children were then given a Fire Gazette magazine and a very important job: work with their parents,...

  We have been having "Funny Fridays" all year. On Friday we have a joke of the day - the kids are really enjoying these! They keep forgetting to share them at home so I told them I would try to remember to post the joke each Friday. I won't put the answer in the hopes that they remember the punch line!  Here is todays:   What key has legs and can't open doors?

We have been preparing for Thanksgiving all week. We have made crafts, read stories, wrote about what we are thankful for and sang some songs about turkeys! This song is a favorite. Have your child sing it to you.   I’m  glad  I’m  not  a  turkey, a  turkey,  a  turkey. I’m  glad  I’m  not  a  turkey on  Thanksgiving  Day. They’ll  cook  you and  baste  you.And  then  they’ll  all  taste  you. Oh,  I’m  glad  I’m  not  a  turkeyon  Thanksgiving  Day.

Number Word Memory

This week we began our unit Numbers to 20. We have spent some time looking at the different ways to show a number (with materials, numerals and number words). This is a great game to help students remember the number words for each numeral from 1-6. Have fun matching!

This week we will be working with the "ad" word family. We will practice at school but be sure to review the words at home as well. It is a good idea to signal them using our Zoo phonics actions but also try writing them on paper to get ready for our quiz on Friday!  The words are: dad, fad, lad, mad, sad, bad, pad, glad

Last week we read the book "The Name Jar" about a little girl who moved to America from Korea. She learned that although her name was different it was special. The students wrote about their names and shared stories that their parents told them about choosing their names. On Friday afternoon we had...

We have been talking about vowels and how important they are. Did you know that there is at least one vowel in every English word! Wow, they are so important. Keep reviewing the vowels (a, e, i, o, u and sometimes y).  Here is a fun video that we used last week in class. See if you can sing along and keep up with those vowel sounds!   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fR-BLFZyAWs
