I want to start off by thanking all of the parents who were able to make it to parent/teacher conferences. I know it may not seem like there is much to talk about, but it's nice for me to be able to spend some one on one time with the parents and check in. It's great to go beyond the usual "hi" and "bye" and have an adult conversation once in awhile :) Our students have made some great progress over the last couple of months and it was so much fun to show the parents some of their work from the beginning of the year to now. We also had the majority of our students register for Kindergarten. It's hard to believe we only have 4 months of school left.
The last two weeks were spent learning about snow, snowflakes, and snowmen. We painted with ice cubes, cut snowflakes out of coffee filters, made snowflakes with q-tips and glitter, and read some great snowflake books. The rest of this week will be spent learning more about one of my favorite books, "The Mitten" by Jan Brett. We will be cutting out our own animals and mitten and the students will be able to retell the story themselves. We will also take turns acting out the story. Next week we have lots of great penguin activities.
Later days!
