Week of 11/5

Hello Sky Room Families!
 
We have been having a wonderful week in the Sky Room! We are currently learning “All About Me”. Many of our classroom discussions have revolved around how we are all uniquely different from each other, which is what makes us all special. Here are a few highlights of the exciting activities we did this week:
 
Classroom Activities:

• Using different shades of paper, yarn, crayons and google-y eyes, the students created their own face! We had each student look in a mirror to examine their faces, and then were able to create their self portraits. The students also told us their name and what letter it begins with, along with their favorite color. The self portraits are currently featured on our bulletin board. 
• We used craft mirror plates, paper, markers and decorative gems/glitter glue to create a hand held mirror! The students were very excited to have their own mirrors to take home.

 
Songs We Sang:

• “The Family Song”
• “1, 2, 3, You Are Friends With Me”
• “All About Me"

 
Books We Read:

• ABC, I Like Me!, by Nancy Carlson
• All About You, by Catherine and Laurence Anholt
• ABCs of Thanks and Please, by Diane C. Ohanesian

 
Dates to Remember:

• No school Monday 11/13 and Tuesday, 11/14 due to Parent Teacher Conferences
• Wednesday 11/14 – Picture Day

 
Next week we will begin to learn about Friends and Family, as well as Thanksgiving! We’re looking forward to meeting with you all during Parent-Teacher conferences next week.
 
We hope you have a great weekend,

Laura Desiree and Ashley
