Art - We had a creative week in art. For Chinese New Year we made red dragons, a rice picture and Chinese masks. We talked about colors and joined all our multiple colored hand prints around our earth. We also talked about how small hands can save the world. Caden had such a "green" idea, remember to turn off your electricity, so you don't waste power!!!

 

Math - We counted lucky money in math this week. All the kids thought they were rich with ten pennies. We also sorted  blocks and created patterns. We are getting better at one, two and three patterns. It was really neat to see all their creative minds thinking.

 

Writing - The letters of the week where Aa and Zz. We practiced writing our letters and did multiple skill sheets to practice. Gracie is working so hard with her writing and she did such a great job this week with writing A and Z.

 

Music - "Chinese New Year E I E I O." They learned all the Zodiac signs for Chinese New Year and that this is the year of the Tiger. They loved learning about what sign they were.

 

Reading - Ms. Stacy found great books to help the kids learn about and understand what Chinese New Year's is all about. The kids were so interested in learning about this holiday and were so involved in each and every story.
