We had another birthday this week. Happy Birthday Rory! Thank you for the box of Goldfish. Those should last awhile.
Who is the other treat fairy? 4K received an Amazon delivery with a box of 30 bags of Goldfish! Thank you so much to whomever surprised us.
Next week, we have 4 days of school and then spring break begins. The push is on to get the kids where they need to be to make a good transition into 5K. Please continue to practice the 4K skills needed to be ready. As always, make learning fun!
I am working on a field trip to Green Meadows Petting Farm. The date that I am trying to get is Friday, May 13th. The 4K students will have an option to put in a longer day of school on this day because Green Meadows does not open until 10 a.m. As soon as the date is confirmed, more information will come home. I will keep you updated.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Learning Without Tears
We began our new purple book and practiced frog jump capitals: N, M
Journals
We are working on adding letters to label our pictures. For example, if the student draws a sun, they write S for sun. Some students are writing each others names. Proud teacher!

This week we are learning about teeth. We learned about foods that are good/bad for teeth. We graphed toothbrushes and made Toothy the puppet who likes to sing "Brush, brush, brush your teeth. Brush them everyday. Up and down and all around. Brush the germs away!" We did an experiment using eggs (teeth) and soda (sugar). The eggs turned brown -yuck! As small groups, we shared brushing away the brown. It worked. We now understand the importance of brushing every day. We do not want brown teeth. We also learned about cavity monsters. We do not want cavities! We will finish the teeth unit next week.
