In CreativeArt we designed dirty bug art, made really cool snails out of paper bowls and paper plate ladybug puppets. The class really loved making the ladybug puppets. We also made dirty, slimy worm cave pictures, and of course, the worms were gummy worms. We used our imaginations pretending the worms were super slimy and dirty. Finally we made bumble bees out of toilet paper rolls and beautiful tissue paper butterflies. 

In Math we worked on patterns, sequencing, and shapes. We created pretty flower patterns, using green, purple, pink and yellow. Caden, Kennedy, Sikha, Olive, Grace and Gracie loved the beautiful flower patterns we created.  We also played a math game called, "Guess what number I am."  We split the class into two teams. One team was named the ladybugs and the other team the bumble bees.  I would give the class two hints, one hint rhymed with the number and the other hint was, "this number is in between _ and _ ." The ladybugs were ahead when we ended the game. Taj, Molly, Connor, Logan and Rowan really loved this game. 

In Reading we read, Miss Spider's New Car, Diary of a Spider, The Very Quiet Cricket, and the Big Bugs. It is so cute, after calendar, when I tell the class, "it's time for Ms. Stacy to read a book" the whole class cheers and claps. She is being coming quite the famous teacher! 

In music, we played frisbie toss and "How fast and high can the bee fly."  We learned the song "hands are for helping." This song has been a great tool for students to remember the proper way to use their body with their friends and others.

Please see Ms. Lindsi or Ms. Stacy to sign a permission slip to allow your child to go on a nature walk for our bird nest we are making next Friday.  We also need parent volunteers to make this adventure super fun and safe! 

Have a great weekend and we can't wait until next week!
