We have been learning about apples this week! We learned the life cycle of an apple, the different parts of an apple (skin, flesh, stem, leaf, seeds) and the 3 different colors an apple can be. We have done a few “easy reader’ books, too. I hope they have told you that they have homework with those books! I told them they have to read it to at least one adult at home, and then someone else, such as a brother, sister, or even your cat or dog! :)
Thursday we went to Room 100 and started a kickoff of PBIS (Positive Behavioral Intervention and Supports- what we use for the entire school). Each month we will be learning about a different characteristics (respect, responsibility, trustworthy…). Thursday we just learned about how to be a good friend and got to hear from high school students about how easy it is to make a person’s day, just by giving a hug, smiling, helping, etc.
Math- We have started our math series, and we even got to start using our math trays and manipulatives, and our math workbooks. The kids love getting use them! We also are learning about ‘math scenes.’ I’m sure you saw a page with 2 of everything… 2 triangles, 2 trees, 2 houses, etc).
We have been working hard trying to learn everyone's names these past 2 weeks. Oliver was the first one to do that! Way to go, Oliver!
Library- We have library on day B, but the kids can bring their book back every day if they would like and get a new one each morning.
Apples- We are going to make applesauce and apple juice next week! Please send any kind of apple(s) by Wednesday. We are asking that each child bring at least one apple, but if you have extras, we would love to have more! If you know the kind of apple, please send that, too. We will be taste testing and would like to talk about how each one has a different taste.
Don’t forget to send a snack with your child everyday!
