Magic Magnets

This week we got to explore the world of magnets.  It was fun to see all of the awe in the kids eyes when the magnets attracted or repelled each other.  It was like magic!  Which conveniently also starts with M.

We also talked about music this week.  We used our mouths, bodies and instruments to make sounds to sing along with.  On Friday we made maracas and in one of our classes we made drums from a students formula can donation.

Back to Normal

Things have finally settled down and for the most part returned to normal since Christmas.  The kids are starting to get back in a routine and have jumped right back into learning.

This week we Talked about the letter L, the number 7 and started to write the number 2.  On Monday/Tuesday we made lollipops and talked about the things we like to lick.  On Wednesday/Thursday we all turned into lions.



On Friday we tried lemons.  It was funny to see the difference in the kids taste.  Some really did not like them and a few kept asking for more.

 

With all of the cold weather we have not been able to go outside.  We have done many things to get our wiggles out. 

 

We have done exercises

Yoga

and even turned into animals.

I just want to tell everyone who has come in or signed up for a parent teacher conference.  I like to be on the same page with all of my parents and would like to remind everyone that if you ever have any concerns big or small, you can always get a hold of me by text, phone or email.  If you are still interested in a conference there are still some slots open on the sign up sheet or you can contact me to set up a time. 

Thank you for all you do!!
