September 26, 2014






Dear Families,

We followed the adventures of the Very Hungry Caterpillar on Tuesday by eating a huge, healthy fruit salad. THANK YOU to all who sent in fruit! It was delicious!!! (I posted pictures on Mrssampleskindergarten.blogspot.com)

In science we are learning about the life cycle of the butterfly.

Books Read: Butterfly Express, Crunching Munching Caterpillar, Gotta Go! Gotta Go! Don't Be Silly, Mrs. Millie, The Very Hungry Caterpillar and a variety of Eric Carle books.

Animated Alphabet is our approach to phonemic awareness and spelling. The letters are taught through a multi sensory approach of music, dance, characters and signs which help the students hold onto that information. The characters we learned this week are; Mimi Mermaid and Max the Ox/Felix Fox.
In math we are getting to know numbers, introducing volume, comparing sizes, patterns with color and continuing our calendar routines. Our routines at calendar time include; counting to the calendar number of the day, weather observations, tracking the number of days we have been in school and days of the week.

We are learning about the Woolwich Way! The Woolwich Way is made up of 6 qualities that will help us to be the best we can be! (Courtesy- I can use good manners, Compassion-I can help others, Respect- I can treat others kindly, Honesty-I can tell the truth, Responsibility- I can take care of myself and my stuff, Quality- I can do my best even when things are hard)
