Ms. Avots' Last day is Friday

Parents,
I just want to celebrate with you what a wonderful job Ms. Avots has done in our classroom. She is and will continue to be a wonderful teacher! We love you, Ms. Avots!!!!

Don't worry...she'll be back. She'll be substitute teaching for us in the near future.

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast and created all kinds of bugs and insects to put in our corn field. We made sure that each insect had 6 legs, each spider had 8 legs, and each centipede had lots of legs! We worked on our fine motor skills by moving circle magnets with a magnetic wand, and by tracing farm animal stencils with crayons on paper. We also created neat farm scenes with felt animals on our felt board. During circle time, we said that it was kind of rainy outside, so we placed the big rain drops over our classroom tree. For calendar, we counted to the number 30, and figured out that we needed a purple number today. For dancing and movement, our song leader chose to sing "The Itsy Bitsy Spider," and he showed us which motions to do. We went outside with Pre-K to play on the new playground, and we enjoyed climbing and going down the fire pole! For centers, Ms. McGuire came into our room for speech, and we created big leaves to put on our classroom tree. Right now, our tree has tiny little leaves on it from the beginning of spring, and that is not what the trees outside look like anymore! The trees outside have big, bright, green leaves, so we drew our own leaves to look like the real ones, and we will put them up later. We also acted out the story we read yesterday, "The Very Hungry Caterpillar," with a felt board with all of the food the caterpillar eats! We had lunch with Pre-K and then went outside on the playground with them. This afternoon, we will be going over to Pre-K to look at our caterpillars, pupas, and butterflies progress, and we will work on symmetry.

Have a great day!

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast and we pretended we were a bunch of farm animals by mooing, oinking and clucking. We worked on our fine motor skills with our leaping frogs by having them jump into a bucket, and we also practiced counting to different numbers with ladybugs. We worked on farm themed puzzles, and glued our ears of corn and corn stalks onto our mud we made yesterday! During circle time, we all put our right hands on our head and got a stamp of the letter of the week, "Z." We decided that it was really windy outside today because we saw trees moving, so we placed the big windsock over our tree. We counted to the number 29, and found out that we needed a purple number by reading our pattern. Our song and dance leader chose to play "Popcorn" and she stood in front of the class and showed us the dance movements. We went outside with Pre-K and had fun looking for bugs and playing on the new playground. For story time, we read "The Very Hungry Caterpillar," by Eric Carl, about a little egg that hatched into a caterpillar, and he was very hungry. He ate lots and lots of food, and when he was stuffed, he made a cocoon, and turned into a butterfly! In centers, we worked on our own butterflies to have come out of their pupas, and washed and scrubbed the farm animals that were really muddy. We ate lunch with Pre-K, and went outside with them on the playground. This afternoon, we will be going to the Library with Pre-K and Kindergarten to have a special story time presentation!
Have a wonderful day!

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast and used our hands to smear brown paint all of a huge piece of paper to make dirt for our corn field. We also worked on our fine motor skills and counting by feeding apples to horses, and worked on sorting with small and large colorful farm animals. We created a farm scene with felt farm animals and worked with play dough and cookie cutter farm animals, so we made lots of animals! During circle time, we decided that it was rainy outside, and we placed the big gray cloud and the rain drops over our tree. For calendar, we counted to the number 28 and read our pattern to learn what color our number should be. Since it was really wet outside, we couldn't go play on the playground, so we sang and danced to two songs during dancing and movement! First, we played the song "Lettercise," and then we sang and danced to "Twinkle, Twinkle." We learned that farmers do not only take care of animals at the farm, but they also grow crops, so we planted our own Lima bean plants in plastic bags! We hung them on the window, and we will get to watch them sprout! During story time, we read "Big Chickens," about four chickens who were scared of everything! For centers, we had speech with Ms. McGuire, and we worked in the big block center creating towers and homes for our farm animals. We also started painting cylinders green, to become the pupa for our butterflies! We went to lunch with Pre-K and went outside on the new playground. Ms. Mitchell had a pupa that was so close to becoming a butterfly so she took it outside with us, and we actually got to see the butterfly unfolding out of the chrysalis. Her legs started moving first, and then her wings came out and they were really tiny! After a while, her wings unfolded and became full-sized, and she started flapping them! This afternoon, in Pre-K, we will be releasing our new butterfly, and making symmetrical wings for our butterflies in one of our math centers!
Have a great night!

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast and talked about what we thought the weather was going to be like today. Some of us said it was going to be rainy, and others said it was just going to be cloudy. We worked on counting by planting different amounts of flowers into gardens, and worked on our fine motor skills by threading large beads onto strings and by stamping with farm animal stamps. We also played a few games of classroom bingo, where our bingo pictures were objects around our room like backpacks, shoes, journals and more! During circle time, we decided that it was really windy outside because we saw the trees moving, so we placed the big windsock over our classroom tree. For calendar, we counted to 27 and when we read our pattern, we realized we needed a purple number. Our dancing and movement helper chose to sing "Where Is Thumbkin?" and she showed us the movements. We went outside with Pre-K on the playground, and afterwards, Ms. Mitchell, the Pre-K teacher told us that a pupa came out of one of the pupas we were watching and we needed to release her! We went over to the Pre-K classroom, looked at the empty pupa casing, and saw the beautiful Monarch Butterfly flying around the net! Ms. Mitchell got the butterfly out of the net, and we all went outside and sang "Happy Birthday" to her as we released her into the wild! For story time, we read "Cock-A-Doodle-Do, Barnyard Hullabaloo" about all of the different animals at the farm. For centers, we worked in the science center by cleaning muddy animals, and we created ears of corn for our bulletin board! We are going to put them up in rows tomorrow when they dry! We ate lunch with Pre-K and since it was raining, we did not go outside. Instead, we came in and danced to some of our favorite songs, and made more ears of corn. We also created a tent by putting a sheet over one of our tables, climbed inside the tent, and read a story, by flashlight, to get us ready for rest time! This afternoon, we will be going over to the Pre-K room to learn about symmetry by looking at and making our own butterfly wings!
Have a wonderful day!

April 24th, 2009

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast and worked on our fine motor skills by feeding bales of hay to cows. We also counted different amounts of ladybugs and put them on leaves and sorted red, blue, yellow and green farm animals. We went to the library, and Ms. Kraal read us two stories! One was about a caterpillar that turned into a butterfly, and the other was about a lazy ladybug! We went outside on the playground with Pre-K and had fun swinging and going across the monkey bars. During circle time, we decided that it was cloudy outside, so we put the big, fluffy, white cloud over our classroom tree. For calendar, we counted to the number 24 and realized that we needed a purple number to follow our pattern. Our dancing and movement helper chose to sing "5 Little Ducks," and we each held a tiny stuffed animal duck while we sang and danced. For centers, we worked on our letter of the week activities, and put yarn on our big yellow ''Y" and put yo-yos on our little "Y" paper. We also created a pig out of a paper plate to put on our farm bulletin board, and worked in the big block center creating towers and shelters for our farm animals. This afternoon, we will be going over to Pre-K to count ladybugs with Ms. Mitchell, and work on other math activities!
Have a great weekend!

April 23rd, 2009

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast and sang the "5 Little Monkeys" song, but instead of 5 monkeys, we had 11 monkeys jumping on the bed! We worked on our farm theme puzzles, counted different amounts of frogs on lily pads, and made silly faces with our magnetic eyes, noses, and mouths. We also played Feelings Bingo, where the bingo cards were made up of different emotions! During circle time, we decided that it was sunny outside, and placed the big yellow sun over our tree, and we counted to the number 23. Our dancing and movement leader chose to sing "Baa Baa Black Sheep," and he showed us what motions to do. We went outside with Pre- K and played on the playground. For story time, we read "Duck On A Bike," about a duck who showed all of the other farm animals how to ride a bike! During centers, we made our own yellow ducks with feathers, and we played in the big block center with farm animals. We also had speech with Ms. McGuire today. We went to lunch with Pre-K and then we went outside with them on the big playground. This afternoon, we have an extreme weather drill scheduled, so we will be practicing what to do in case some bad weather comes along.
Have a great day!

April 22nd, 2009

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast and talked about today being Earth Day! We learned about taking care of our environment and picking up trash. We worked on our fine motor skills by working with our leaping frogs and by feeding apples to a horse. We drew different objects on chalkboards, and we worked on teamwork by putting a farm puzzle together. During circle time, we decided that it was sunny outside because it was really bright, and we placed the big yellow sun over our tree. For calendar, we counted to 22 and discovered that our 22 needed to be purple to go along with our pattern. For dancing and movement, our helper chose to play "Ride That Pony," and he stood at the front of the class and showed us the movements to the song. We went outside with Pre-K and played on the playground, and had lots of fun playing in the tunnels and on the monkey bars. Since it is Earth Day today, after playing on the playground, we each got our own plastic bag, and searched around our school campus for trash. We picked up lots of trash! We found tiny pieces of trash, and really big pieces too! When we came inside, we finished our farm animal stamp painting and our chick stencils, and we went outside to the science center where we had farm animals in mud, and we cleaned the animals with sponges. We also put some rosemary in the mud, and we all smelled it's scent and planted it in the dirt. We went to lunch with Pre-K and then went outside with them on the big playground. After lunch, we will be going over to the Pre-K classroom to finish creating our farm animal bar graphs, measure caterpillars, and observe the eggs in the incubator.
Have a wonderful evening!

April 21st, 2009

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast and worked on our fine motor skills by feeding corn to pigs, stamping farm animals, and working with bristle blocks. We also worked with the birthday cakes, and each cake has a number on it which tells you how many candles to put in it, since it is Ms. Parson's birthday! During circle time, we decided it was sunny outside, so we placed the big yellow sun over our tree and felt the warmth from a flashlight. During calendar time, we counted to the number 21 and read our "pink, purple, purple, purple" pattern, and decided that we needed a pink number today. Our dancing and movement helper chose to sing "Popcorn," and we had a lot of fun jumping and dancing to the song! We went outside and played with Pre-K on the new playground, and enjoyed climbing and laying in the tunnels! For story time, we read "Click, Clack, Quackity-Quack," an ABC story about silly farm animals and what they like to do. We had speech today with Ms. McGuire, and during centers we spot painted a baby chick, and created a farm scene with farm animal sponges! We also played in the big block center with all of the toy farm animals. We went to lunch with Pre-K and went outside with them on the playground. This afternoon, we will be going over to the Pre-K classroom to measure caterpillars, and to create a bar graph with farm animals!
Have a great day!

April 20th, 2009

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast together and we talked about being great helpers by helping a friend open up their cereal when they ask, and getting friends paper towels when they spill. We worked on farm puzzles, practiced our counting by putting different amounts of airplanes in the sky, and worked on our fine motor skills by tracing stencils of farm animals. We also had farm animal cookie cutters that we used to make animals out of play dough! During circle time, we decided that it was sunny outside, so we placed the big yellow sun over our classroom tree and felt the heat from flashlight. Our calendar helper pointed to all of the numbers as we all counted to 20, and we decided we needed a purple 20 according to our pattern. Our dancing and movement helper chose to sing "The Itsy Bitsy Spider," and then he sat in front of us and showed us what hand movements to do. We went outside with Pre-K on the new playground, and we had fun playing on the monkey bars and sliding down the slides. For story time, we read "Mrs. Wishy-Washy," which was about a lady who washed a pig, cow and duck after they got dirty in the mud. During centers, we all became Mrs. and Mr. Wishy-Washies, and we cleaned muddy farm animals with sponges and soapy water! We also created horses with manes and long tails for our farm bulletin board. We went to lunch with Pre-K and then went outside with them on the big playground. This afternoon, we will work on math centers, and look at the eggs that we are waiting on to hatch!
Have a great day!

April 16th, 2009

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast together and practiced our counting with frogs on lily pads. We also drew with chalk on chalkboards, and worked on our fine motor skills by playing with the linking men manipulatives and by using our fingers to squirt water from our farm animal squirt toys. During circle time, we decided that it was cloudy outside, and placed the big, fluffy, white cloud over our tree. We counted to the number 16 during calendar time, and read our pattern to discover that we needed a purple number today. For movement and dancing time, we danced to "Disco Limbo," where we actually play limbo with a broom stick! We went outside and had a lot of fun with our Pre-K friends. During story time, we read a big book called "The Farm." It was a lot like the song "Old McDonald," and we got to practice our farm animal noises! For centers, we played in the big block center and made houses and shelters for farm animals with the blocks and we started making cows for our bulletin board. We also got to work with Ms. McGuire on speech, and Mrs. Pundt, our counselor, came in and taught us a lesson about community workers. She read us a book about different jobs in our community, and then had us draw objects from a box, and we had to guess which worker might need them! We ate lunch with Pre-K and went outside to play on the playground with them. This afternoon, we will be going over to the Pre-K classroom to do a math activity about eggs, and to practice milking cows with rubber gloves!
Have a great day!

April 15th, 2009

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast together, worked on our counting by putting different amounts of fish into fish tanks, and sorted lots of miniature farm animals. We also drew pictures and letters on whiteboards with dry erase markers, and finished painting our big paper mache eggs! We also cut out more pictures from our field trip, and looking at the pictures made us laugh a lot about all of the funny farm animals we saw. During circle time, our weather helper told us that it was really sunny outside, and we placed the big yellow sun over our tree, and felt the warm heat from a flashlight. We also counted to the number 15 and decided that our 15 needed to be purple to fit our "pink, purple, purple, purple" pattern. Our movement and dance leader chose "I Like Potatoes" for our song, and we sang and dances to it. We went outside on the new playground with our Pre-K friends and had a lot of fun climbing on everything. We came inside and read the story "From Grass to Butter," about the process of making butter. We then made our own butter! We put heavy whipping cream into baby food jars, and placed a marble inside. Then, all of us took turn shaking the jars really fast! While we were shaking, we played the "Shake Your Beanbag" song to encourage us, and we also read the story "The Little Red Hen," which taught us the importance of teamwork. Since the dog, cat and pig didn't help the little red hen make her bread, they did not get to eat it. It took us a long time, but we finally made butter, and since we all helped make it, we all got to eat it! We really enjoyed our butter on salty crackers, and almost everyone asked for seconds and thirds! For centers, we had the science center open, where we played with farm animals in dirt, and we also had the big farm center open, where we played with animals in a barn. We ate lunch with Pre-K and then went outside and had fun with them on the playground. This afternoon, we will be going over to Pre-K to finish our egg toss into small, medium and big containers, and work in fun math centers!
Have a wonderful night!

April 14th, 2009

Parents,
This morning we all had a wonderful breakfast together and talked about what animals we needed to put on our barn bulletin board. We also worked on our fine motor skills by scooping corn to feed pigs, and scooping bails of hay to feed cows. We also created our own farm scenes with felt farm animals and objects, and created a rock trail to lead up to our barn. During circle time, we put our right hand on our head so we could get a stamp of the letter "X," since that is our letter of the week. Our weather helper decided that it was really sunny outside, so we placed the big yellow sun over our tree, and felt the warm that the sun gives us by touching a flashlight. For calendar, we counted to the number 14, and read that today's date is Tuesday, April 14th. For our movement time, our song leader chose "Mary Had A Little Lamb," and we sang and danced to the song. We went outside with Pre-K, and had a lot of fun playing frisbee and playing with hula-hoops. While we were outside, we each got our own plastic bag, and filled it with dirt. We will be using this dirt later on this week in one of our lessons! During centers, Ms. McGuire worked on speech with us, and we played in the big block center that had a huge toy farm in it! We had lots of different farm animals, and we had fun acting out the different animals. For story time, we read, "Click, Clack, Moo, Cows That Type!" It was a funny story about cows that learned to type on an old typewriter in the barn, and they wrote notes to the farmer! We went to lunch and ate with our Pre-K friends, and then we went outside to the playground and practiced going across the monkey bars. This afternoon, we will be going over to the Pre-K classroom to observe Monarch butterfly caterpillars, and make drawings of what they look like. We will also toss plastic eggs into different sized containers, and count how many eggs land in each!
Have a great Tuesday!

Parents,
I hope you all enjoyed your wonderful 3 day weekend! This morning we ate breakfast together and then we did our fine motor work. We created structures with bristle blocks and created funny faces with feature magnets. We also looked through all of the pictures that Ms. Avots took on the field trip to Crowe's Nest Farm. We had many fun memories to talk about! During circle time we determined that it's sunny today, put the big yellow sun over the tree, and felt the warmth of the flashlight. We counted to 13 during calendar and added to our pattern. Our movement song was "The Bear Hunt". We screamed really loudly when the bear came. We played outside on the new little playground. For story time today, Ms. Avots read "Russell the Sheep". Russell had lots of trouble falling asleep, but he finally did in the end. During center time we each created our own Russell the sheep. We cut a sheep shape out and glued cotton balls all over it. We added googly eyes at the end. We'll be adding these to our farm scene soon. Our chickens are already happily living there. We also cut out many of the pictures from our farm field trip. We glued them on paper and Ms. Henderson, our substitute teacher, wrote down the stories the children had to tell. We ate lunch and played on the playground with Pre-K. This afternoon we're working on our math skills in Ms. Mitchell's Pre-K class.
Have a great night!

April 9, 2009

Parents,
We had a wonderful breakfast together this morning with lots of great conversation. For our fine motor work we strung letters and numbers on laces, put people blocks together to create shapes and structures, and moved metal circles of different colors with a magnet. During circle time we determined that it's cloudy today and put the white cloud over the tree. We counted to 9 during calendar and added to our color pattern. We danced to "I like Potatoes" - and the best thing is that today there were baked potatoes in the cafeteria for lunch! Yay! We played outside on the new playground. For story time I read "On the Farm". We practiced making different animal sounds while we read the book. We also talked about the dog who slept with one eye open because he was on guard duty. The two centers we had open today were the art center where we continued painting our eggs, and the science center where we had lots of scoops, colored rice, and farm animals in a tub. We used the scoops to cover up the animals and then we'd look for them. Today AISD had a bus safety drill. We all went outside, boarded a bus, fastened our seat belts, and listened to safety rules. We had speech therapy with Ms. McGuire. After lunch with our Pre-K friends we played with them on the playground. This afternoon we'll continue our morning centers as we ran out of time. Have a wonderful three-day weekend! See you on Monday!

April 8th, 2009

Parents,
Yesterday, we did not have a blog because we were on our field trip! We went to Crow's Nest Farm and we went on a hay ride, saw how they milk cows, and took a walking tour to see lots of farm animals! This morning we ate breakfast, and worked on our fine motor skills with our leaping frogs and with farm animal squirt toys that were in water. We also practiced our counting by planting different amounts of flowers in gardens and counting bunny rabbits. During circle time, we decided that it was sunny outside, and placed our big yellow sun over our tree, counted to the number 8 and decided our pattern for our numbers is pink, purple, purple, purple. Our music helper chose to sing "Lettercise," and she stood in front to show us the movements to the song. We went outside to the new playground, and had a lot of fun playing with our Pre-K friends. For story time, we read, "What Is That AWFUL Smell?" about farm animals trying to figure out what smells so terrible in their barn. For centers, we created structures in the block center for our farm animals to live in, and created roosters with our hand prints! We ate lunch with Pre-K and then went outside to the big playground and played with them. This afternoon, we will be finishing up our hand print roosters, and making a big silo for our bulletin board. We will also be filling out the rest of our farm chart, about what we learned from taking our field trip to the farm!
Have a great Wednesday!

April 6th, 2009

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast and worked on our fine motor skills by working with bristle blocks and feeding bails of hay to cows. We also sorted miniature farm animals into groups of pigs, cows, donkeys, horses, geese, chickens, goats and sheep, and worked with large farm animal toys in a pasture. During circle time, we decided that it was cloudy outside because we couldn't see the blue sky, so we placed the white puffy cloud over our tree. During calendar time, we counted to the number 6 and decided that our 6 needed to be purple to match our pattern, and we sang and danced to "5 Little Ducks." We went outside on the new playground with Pre-K and we practiced taking turns going across the monkey bars. For story time, we read "Big Red Barn" by Margaret Wise Brown, which was about all of the different animals that lived in the barn. We talked about what we already know about farms, and we wrote everything down on the "What we know" part of the chart. On Wednesday, we will write down what we learned or saw on our field trip on the other side of the chart. For centers, we painted our paper mache eggs, and worked in the big block center making fences and shelters for our farm animals. We ate lunch with Pre-K, and went outside on the playground with them. This afternoon, we will be staying in our classroom to work on the farm bulletin board by making a huge barn!
Have a great night!

April 3rd, 2009

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast together and worked on our fine motor skills by threading strings through letters with holes in them. We also made Mat Man and counted with flowers. We went to the Library and Ms. Kraal read us two books about friendship. One was about a bear and a mouse, and the other was about a bear and a goose. We played outside on the playground with Pre-K on the new playground, and then came inside for circle time. During weather time, we decided that it was really sunny outside, so we placed the big yellow sun over our tree. We counted to the number 3 and determined that we cannot tell what our number pattern will be yet. We shook plastic eggs with mystery objects inside, and guessed what was in the eggs. We found out that each egg had something different inside, and in the eggs were rice, a piece of chalk, a feather, bird seed, and water. We said that the bird seed and the rice sounded a lot alike, but the others sounded very different, and then we sang and danced to "Disco Limbo." We read "Green Eggs and Ham," and then we actually made and ate green eggs and ham! We stirred green food coloring into our egg mixture and on our ham, and cooked it! Everyone loved it and finished their plates! We put our final layer of paper mache on our eggs, and then headed to lunch with Pre-K. After lunch, we went to the library and found books about farms and farm animals, and then went outside with Pre-K. This afternoon, we will be making little chicks in plastic eggs, and doing letter of the week activities with the letter "V."
Have a wonderful weekend!

April 2nd, 2009

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast and worked on our counting skills by placing different amounts of frogs on lily pads, and counting ducks in a pond. We also drew different characters from the movie "Monsters vs. Aliens" on whiteboards with dry erase markers to practice our writing grip, and played with felt characters on a felt dollhouse. We dressed the dolls, fed the baby felt doll a bottle, and put them all to sleep in their beds. During circle time, we decided that it was very windy, so we placed the big windsock over our tree. We counted to the number 2 on our calendar, and said that today was Thursday, April 2nd. For singing and dancing, we played the song "Tooty Ta," and our music helper showed us the motions! We played outside with Pre-K on the playground, and enjoyed the monkey bars and the fireman pole! For story time, we continued to read "The Pinkish, Purplish, Bluest Egg" and then some of us went over to Ms. McGuire's room for speech. During centers, we continued to paper mache our huge eggs to make them really thick with paper, and played in the big block center. We made towers that were almost as tall as us! Right before lunch, we looked at our egg that had been soaking in vinegar, and dropped it from different distances to see if it would break. We discovered that the egg actually bounced, and then we popped it and got to feel the soft, rubbery shell! We went to lunch with Pre-K, and then went out to the playground with them. This afternoon, we will be going over to Pre-K to finish working on our egg patterns, and work on math equations about chickens in a tractor!
Have a great evening!

April 1st, 2009

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast and met our new friend who has joined our classroom! We all introduced ourselves and had fun talking to her! We worked on our fine motor skills by placing pegs into a peg board and making beautiful pieces of art with stamps. We also sorted dinosaurs by color and type, and then worked with different action figures that wind up and twist. During circle time, our weather helper saw the trees moving, so we decided it was windy outside, and placed the windsock over our big tree. We saw that today started a new month, so we placed a pink number 1 on the calendar, and read that today was Wednesday, April 1st. For music and dancing, we sang and danced to "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star," and had our dancing helper sit in front of the class and be the song leader. We went outside and played with Pre-K on our new playground! We all enjoyed the slide and the tunnels to crawl through. For story time, we started reading "The Pinkish, Purplish, Bluest Egg," about a mother dove who found a huge egg and brought it to her nest to hatch. During centers, we played in the big block center and hid eggs for each other to find, and continued working on our paper mache eggs, which look like they are almost ready to paint! We ate lunch with Pre-K and went outside to play on the playground. This afternoon, we will be going over to Pre-K to make patterns with eggs that are different sizes and and colors.
Welcome to our new student and her family, and have a great evening!
