Hello families! On Monday, we did a fun craft about our five senses, where we created a face and labeled the different senses. We also had our book fair viewing! The kids had so much fun exploring the books and writing down their wishlists. On Tuesday, we focused on beginning sounds, practicing identifying and matching sounds to letters. We also had our book fair again, it was nice seeing the kids do their own transaction. On Wednesday, we went on our community walk! The kids did an amazing job staying safe as we walked up to Scotsman’s Hill. We split into groups and explored our surroundings, discussing what we saw, touched, smelled, and heard. Afterward, we enjoyed a snack and played at a nearby playground. It was a wonderful experience for everyone! I hope you all enjoy your spring break! Cheers, Ms.Infante

The students shared heartwarming stories and wrote about their ideas in their journals. For math, we played a fun number recognition game using a bean bag toss—students took turns tossing a bean bag onto a large sheet of paper with numbers and then practiced writing and representing the number with drawings on their whiteboards. Tuesday We had a pizza party! We read Pete the Cat and the Perfect Pizza Party, then created our own pizzas using different shapes. Students had the chance to be creative with their toppings while counting the circles, squares, rectangles, and triangles on their pizzas. We also worked on letter sounds and blending CVC words, helping to build early read...
