Week Five

Highlights of last week...
We had so much fun tracing and labeling our bodies for Science. Thanks to Mrs. Perkins and Mrs. Riley for their help there! In addition to the tracing and labeling, we played Simon Says for some extra reinforcement. I learned that Mrs. Allen is not very good at being the Simon says instructor. I (accidentally) told some tasks that were impossible to simultaneously complete... like "Simon says put your hands on your hips" then immediately after, "Simon says put your hands on your head"... I of course should have said "Simon says take your hands off your hips AND THEN Simon Says put your hands on your head". Whew did I hear some groans from the class, man those Kindergartners know their Simon Says! I learned my lesson.
We also enjoyed our class donation of ceramic Native American Pots! Thanks Liles family. The kiddos were able to each paint their own!

  • Whole Group Study- the letter 's'

Reminders...
I am currently working on setting up Scholastic book ordering online so that the orders, if you choose, may be processed via the internet. The ordering online system will be set up by the end of the week, I'll post (when it is set up) on how to access it. All book orders will be due by the 18th of this month.

Thanks to all our parent volunteers and everyone for the support :)
