We had another exciting week! Below is an update on what the Yellow Room children learned this week in school. 

Themes this week:
  • 3..2..1...BLAST OFF! This week we continued our study of the Solar System.
 
Classroom Activities:
  • As a whole group, we discussed our closest neighbor in space, the moon. We also learned all about the Apollo 11 mission that landed Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the moon.
  • In our writing center, the children have written and illustrated our last class book of the year. 
  • We named the eight planets and learned a mnemonic device that would help us remember their order from the sun: My Very Excellent Mother Just Served Us Nachos. 
  • In centers, the kids are working on a very special year book that we hope you all enjoy.
  • In our art center, the children all got their groove on as they tie-dyed a T-shirt yellow for field day.


Books we read:
  • Science Vocabulary Readers, The Moon, by Lydia Carlin
  • One Giant Leap, The Story of Neil Armstrong, by Don Brown
  • What the Moon Is Like, by Franklyn M. Branley
  • To The Moon, by Jodie Shepherd
  • Mousetronaut, by Mark Kelly


Places we visited:
  • In music, we sang Lean On Me, What a Wonderful World, and Poison Ivy.
  • In library, Lindsay read Because, by Mo Willems 
 
Enjoy the photos and the long holiday weekend.

Sincerely,

The Yellow Room Teachers
