Buddy Time with Upper Elementary

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day! We had a fun day celebrating .The mischievous leprechauns even snuck into our classroom and made a big mess. They left behind gold coins, scraps of silver and gold paper, and glitter. They children picked-up after the leprechauns and made pictures with the goodies that were left behind.
Math: we are using addition mats to add with. They are doing a wonderful job. Practicing the addition facts from 1-10 would be a great activity to do at home. We also graphed lucky charms for St. Patrick’s Day.
Literacy: We had our play this week which was fabulous……I was amazed at how well the children memorized their parts. It was so fun. They were so proud of themselves. We also had the opportunity to watch the other class’s plays. Thanks Julie! I appreciate all the work you did to provide the children with this experience. In class we also made bunuelos to go along with the theme from their play. I am sending the recipe home in their folders.
General information:
1. Please remember to send fruit break with your child everyday. They need the fuel to get through the day.
2. We are almost out of glue sticks. Donations are welcome.
3. Conferences are April 7th if you need to reschedule your conference time please let me know. I am here most morning and I am also available some days after school.
