Morning Work

New morning work

this week

Charleigh is playing

the planting game

(carrots on a stick with

number and you can "plant"

them by putting them in numerical

order)

Coloring and cutting

Insects to investigate

I found a 

Praying Mantis for

Winston(who LOVES

praying mantis')

Practicing cutting

straight lines and curves

Butterfly coloring sheets and also

looking at which butterfly is different

from the others

using a magnifying glass to

check out the insects

using the flowers to make

patterns or just a design

MORNING MEETING

and

CLASS PLEDGE

Nora was our

attendance helper

EVERYONE CAME TO
SCHOOL TODAY!!!

Second Steps

We looked closely at this picture

We looked at each child's face and

tried to decide how we thought each child was feeling

the children decided the child in purple was sad

we then talked about WHY we thought she was sad

many friends said

they thought she was sad because she

can't see the book

I asked the children if they could

think of other FEELINGS that might describe

how you feel when things don't go your way

or your don't get what you want

the children did a great job with this

they said

angry

mad

frustrated

one feeling they might not be as 

familiar with is 

DISAPPOINTED

We then talked about ways

to calm our BODIES when we

have BIG emotions!!

So proud of this

group of children

LOTS of great ideas and we all

practiced taking

belly breathes

breathe in through your nose

out through your mouth

OUTSIDE

Teddy was so proud

of himself for standing

on top of the tires...he was on the

higher one as well

CHAPEL

Mrs Bernhardt's class

led chapel in the commons today

We learned about

the GOOD SHEPHERD 

Jesus is our Good Shepherd

Bria was our

offering helper

STORY TIME

Teddy asked if he could volunteer to 

be our

LIBRARIAN today

weather helper

Lincoln said WINDY!!!

SO WINDY OUT TODAY

Teddy was our

prayer leader

Charleigh was

our snack manager

SNACK

Addie was our teacher assistant

Carson was very excited to be

our entomologist today

He got to add the number to our count

we are on day 7!

About 1/2 way to

BUTTERFLIES

then he got to show the class

his drawing of what was happening...

His drawing shows 4 of the chrysalis

still attached to the lid and one off to the

side 

which even though can't see great in picture below

is exactly what is happening

(one caterpillar built his

chrysalis on the bottom

of the container instead

of crawling to the top

like they usually do..so I am

interested to see what

happens with that one)

CENTER TIME

Hazel was our

exercise leader

PUSH UPS

Oliver was our invocation leader

we did invocation a little later

today because of chapel
