Parents,
I apologize for the late post this week but the blog was down over the weekend. Here is what we have going on this week:
We will be learning about the circles of self-awareness this week. They are body, mind, emotions, and inner-self (spirit). We will start with the body and move through the different circles exploring how taking care of each one can keep us happy.
We will be identifying different types of mammals this week. Last week we learned about the characteristics of mammals and had Rupert the guinea pig come for a visit.
We will be learning about animals and plants that live in the North American grasslands this week.
In art we will be tinting colors by adding white to paint. I love to blow their minds by proving that pink is really just light red.
We will be reading another native American folk tale this week. There are so many good ones – I haven’t decided which one we will read yet.
We will be learning two songs this month. One is America the Beautiful and the other is I’m Lucky. We will be performing these songs during our class feast. We will be joining Ms. Joy’s class and making a relish tray, butter, and corn bread. Parents are invited and encouraged to come to this event. It will be Friday the 18th. You can sign up to bring items for the feast. The items need to come unprepared the day of the feast as the children will be preparing them. We could also use two parent volunteers to help the entire time so if you are interested send me an email.
