Week of 2/4

2/8/2019

 
Dear Panda Room Parents,


 
We had a great week in the Panda Room learning all about Cultures Around the World, specifically Greece.
 
Books we read:
  • Detective Dog and the Disappearing Doughnut, by Valerie Garfield
  • Islandborn, by Junot Diaz
  • Same, Same but Different, by Henry Holt
 
Classroom Activities:
  • Had our Letter of the Week “D”
  • This week we continued to explore cultures around the world with a focus on Greece.
  •  We learned all about the ancient ruins in Greece from old theaters to the Parthenon. Then the children got in pairs and built their own structures with toothpicks and gumdrops!!
  • Also in Centers the children made patterns on ancient Greek pottery.
  • Another fun center involved learning about Greek Mythology. As a class we learned that these old stories are used to teach lessons. We read and acted out Pandora's Box. Then each child drew and wrote their own boxes filled with something they would want to share with the world.
  • Lastly, our Cultures Festival was AMAZING, thank you everyone for participating 
 
Theme this week:
·         We talked about Greece 
·         Next week we will learn about Valentine's Day
 
Reminders:
  • Valentines for each child on Thursday 2/14

Have a great weekend!

The Panda Room Teachers
