Wow! We had a really busy week. It started out with a birthday celebration on Monday. Happy birthday Ailish.
On Wednesday Kitty Jones from the Temple Fire Department came to school and taught us some safe ways and places to walk. Always walk on a sidewalk and cross streets only at the corner using the crosswalk. If you have to walk at night you should wear light colored clothing and reflective vests or strips and carry a flashlight.
On Thursday the students used their five senses to explore the garden during a Science lesson. We used our tongue to taste our snack before going outside and....
Friday brought a bright change of pace when three of the girls spent almost the whole recess on the swings singing a song. Listen carefully to hear them sing, "Aaahhh, aaahhh, sing a happy song". They repeat these phrase over and over while they swing. They were sooooo cute I just had to share.
We began a new lesson in reading and have a new sight word. I and like are the words were are learning. While you are reading with your child let him/her read along and see if they can pick out these words. We are working on creating flash cards that will include all the sight words for the year as well as some other ones like the color words. When these are finished they will be sent home so that you can help your child review them.
