Week of 1/14

Dear Honey Bear Families,

It’s been another terrific week for the Honey Bears and we are all hoping for some snow!  Please read the update below to see what the children have been up to. 
 
Theme This Week:

• More about winter
• The letter S

 
Books We Read:

• The Jacket I Wear In The Snow, by Shirley Neitzel
• When Winter Comes, by Nancy Van Laan

 
Places We Went:

• The Art studio with Janae and Julia.  The children really enjoyed easel painting!
• Movement with Lindsay.  The Honey Bears love to be animals and then to relax with yoga!

 
Classroom Activities:

• We did all of our HWOT activities for the letter S.
• We sorted things that were hot and things that were cold. 
• The children played a mitten match game and made fabulous snowflake patterns.
• We made a snowman sequence story and had to pick which snowman was different. 

 
Highlights:

• We were so excited to be back in the art studio!
• The children had fun as usual in gym2 and gym 3.
• We had a visit from Matman!

 
Looking Forward To:

• No school- Monday and Tuesday, January 21st and 22nd.
• Cultures Celebration- Thursday, February 7th at 11:30 in the Honey Bear Room.  Every child must have an adult. 

 
Have a great long weekend!
