Welcome Back to school after an unexpected long weekend!
I hope everyone had a fantastic *SNOW* day! I went sledding with lots of kids from school and had a blast!
This morning after talking about our calendar, we all wanted to tell what we did yesterday in the snow! We had time to share and then we got out our journals! The children drew a picture of what they did in the snow and then copied "On the Snow Day I" and then I helped them finish their sentence. It sounds like everyone had a really fun time sledding, building snowmen, and just playing outside in general!
The bad thing about the snow day is that we missed Dr. Seuss's birthday. The good news is that we can still do fun Dr. Seuss stuff the rest of the week! Today we're reading The Cat in the Hat and talking about our favorite rainy day activities.
The rest of the week we'll be doing more fun Dr. Seuss activities...
Wednesday: Wacky Wednesday & Fox in Socks
Today we will be having crazy sock day! Students can wear crazy socks to school and we will have a sock-feet day in class. We will read Wacky Wednesday on the smart board and find all of the wacky things that happened on this particular Wednesday!
Thursday: I Wish That I Had Duck Feet
We will read the story and make a picture of what kind of animal parts we would like to have. We will have a large group discussion about what problems these might cause!
Friday: Green Eggs and Ham
We will read the recipe for Green Eggs and Ham and actually make Green Eggs and Ham for breakfast!
This week's centers also focus on Dr. Seuss.
Art: Students will make a multi-media Cat in the Hat using pipe cleaners for whiskers. They also must make an AB pattern for the hat.
Technology: Students will play One Fish, Two Fish matching at http://www.seussville.com/games_hb/game_viewer.php .
Writing: Students have a handout with all capital letters. They must copy the capital letter and then write the lower case partner.
ABC: Students will be given letters of the alphabet on Cat In The Hat cards to alphabetize. Each person has their own letters to put in order. This helps students practice their alphabet and awareness of where each letter goes.
