September 30, 2012

 On Friday last week, the students went on a fall outing to observe the seasonal changes we have been experiencing. Each of the children was able to explore in a small area and gather a variety of leaves to put in a bag for a couple of art projects that were planned in our return t school. The weather was cool, but dry. As you can see by the picture of the September weather graph in our class, there has been very little rain this past month.  
 The afternoon students have been using the Smart board to practice patterns and number recognition using downloaded manipulative games. In addition, they have enjoyed drawing different  animals using shapes to create their creatures.
 Others have just enjoyed seeing what designs look like on the big board or writing their name.
Among many other things this week, we will wrap up our butterfly unit and compare the changes our frog and caterpillars went through these last 6 weeks. Enjoy your week...I know we will enjoy our time in class!
