We are finishing our study of the life cycle of the butterfly. All but 1 caterpillar is in chrysalis mode and working on that fabulous metamorphosis! One little caterpillar is trying to grow big enough to move into that next phase...
We had a FABULOUS trip to Rocky Ridge Orchard and had a delicious apple and doughnut. We picked up a small pumpkin we will be painting in art class and bringing home soon! The hay ride was so much fun. We also brought home a bag of apples and concluded the week with a warm applesauce to end our Friday. We all helped peel and core the apples and are bringing home the core and seeds with directions on how to plant an apple tree. Fun!
Books Read: Pete the Cat Falling for Autumn, The Big Apple, and the song-A-P-P-L-E
(which is sung like "Bingo)
In math we are getting to know numbers 0-10, sorting, discussing a graph, using math manipulatives, 10 frames, finger counting, working with shapes and continuing our calendar routines.
We began a letter of the day series this week and we have completed A, B, and C! You might see headbands coming home with a picture that represents that letter and sound we are working on for the day. This is a very quick review of 26 letters in 26 days and is a whole lot of fun!
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)
