Parents,
We had breakfast together today and then we worked with gears. We set them up and attached a handle and made everything go around and around. The Science Fair is today! They called us down and we took our project and proudly turned it in. During circle time today we determined that it's windy and we put the wind sock over the tree and dressed the bears in their jackets. During calendar we counted to 29 and then we danced to "Disco Limbo" for movement. We played outside with our Pre-K friends. We all held the edges of a parachute and we predicted and then observed what would happen when we all raised the parachute up and let go. We went to Ms. Mitchell's Pre-K room and hear her son, Nicholas, play drums. It was very cool! We were called down to the Science Fair again and we told the judged what we did for our experiment. Everyone did a GREAT job of talking. The judges said they really liked our project and that we did a wonderful job. They gave us a ribbon for our display that said "EXCELLENT DISPLAY". Yay! For story time today I read "The Cheerios Counting Book". We counted the letter "O"s in the cover and found three Cheerios that were being used as "O"s. We counted along with the book. During center time we glued Cheerios on to big letter "O" paper. We also got to eat some when we were finished. Ms. McGuire came for speech therapy today. We had lunch and played on the playground with Pre-K. After rest we'll continue with math folder games in Pre-K and celebrate one of our friend's birthdays.
Enjoy your night!
