Week of 4/8

4/12/2019

 
Dear Star Room 2AM Families,

What a great week we had in the classroom! Here are some of the fun activities we enjoyed during classroom.

Theme this week:
  • This week we continued our unit on Spring with a discussion about flowers. We learned the parts of the plant: flower, leaves, stem, roots and that flowers need water to grow. The roots of a flower “drink” the water for the flower and we noted that we drink water with our mouths, not roots. We created picture cards that the children can velcro in sequence to demonstrate the order of the parts of a flower. We will continue to explore these topics in the coming weeks!
 
Books we read:
  • My Garden, by Kevin Henkes
  • Planting a Rainbow, by Lois Ehlert
 
Songs we sang:
  • “Plants”
  • “Spring Song”
 
Places we went:
  • At Art with Julia and Janae, we used our watercolor drawings from last week as a background . We also sifted pink sand with blue glitter at the light table. 
  • We read I Know a Rhino, by Charles Fuge and took out books from the library with Lindsay.
  • We sang It’s a Small World After All, Do a Deer, Wide Mouthed Frog and We’re Going on a Bear Hunt with Noel in Music.
  • We played in 2nd floor indoor gym and the roof!
 
Classroom Activities:
  • In keeping with our theme, we finished our new placemats by adding patterned paper eggs to the water-colored paper. We started a new thematic 3-D bulletin board project. The children painted a paper plate in bright colors and will later add in a ruffled paper circle and a button in the middle. They will be displayed in a garden theme on our bulletin board. Keep your eyes peeled for the display coming soon!
Reminders:
  • Library Books Due, Tuesday 4/16
  • No School, P/T Conferences, Thursday 4/25
Enjoy the photos! As always, please feel free to reach out through email with questions or concerns.

Have a great weekend!
Sarah and Jill
