This morning, after Henry lead our morning meeting, Pattie (our Director of Development and Marketing) came to our class to read. Her surprise visit had the children engaged in three different books. She first read Wise Up, Silly Owl! by Steve Metzger and Hans Wilhelm. She then read Llama Llama Red Pajamas by Anna Dewdney, followed by Little Bear's Trousers by Jane Hissey.
After all of that reading and discussing, we barely had time for fruit break and recess. Afterwards, we went to Music class with Kim and returned for a late math workshop. We worked on sorting things into categories today. We had all sorts of things - magnets, figurines, cars, blocks, etc. We discussed why they were grouped together and why they weren't, practicing vocabulary like "vehicle", "person", and "transportation".
Before recess, we had time for another Harold story, so we read Harold's Fairy Tale by Crockett Johnson before heading out.
I've now heard from 3 of you about Scholastic Flyers...who will be next?
Please don't forget to fill out and send back in the yellow paper in your child's folder. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you for all you do!
