We are working on some Fall crafts which will be up on the wall soon.  Tomorrow, we will add our tissue paper leaves.  The students take their time and have done a great job on these!  You will find them outside our door if you happen to drop by for a visit.

IMG_0276[1]Students are continuing to make books with the theme being fall.  Two are working on a book about apple-picking and as soon as they are done and I have recorded their thoughts for a permanent record to keep for my own binder of student work, they will be sent home for you to enjoy.  I am so pleased with the interest they have shown and their ideas are amazing!

And in case you missed these cute little racoons based on the story by Audrey Penn, here they are up on our wall.  I will provide a link to the story in case your child would like to share it with you!

Have a wonderful week!

Here’s what we’re up to…September 14-20

The children are learning so much- how many letters are in their names, the sounds letters make, how to read a dice, some key sight words, how to listen for words in a spoken sentence and so much more.  By the end of the day, everyone is tuckered out and ready to relax.

Here are a few pictures of our centers and free play areas:

We also celebrated International Dot Day today in class by reading Peter Reynold’s book The Dot.  We painted dots as a way to remember our inner artistic ability.  Here are some pictures of that fun event as well!

This is Peter Reynold’s book. In his words, this book is “for anyone who has been afraid to express themselves – from a child in art class to an adult whose fear has shut down a long-held dream, Peter H. Reynolds’ book The Dot (Candlewick Press) is there to remind us all to “Make your mark, and see where it takes you.”

Welcome parents, friends and families!

This blog is for you- to help you keep up to speed on the goings and comings of my little class.  We are very small in number, but we are going to grow together in ways that I can only imagine right now.  Thank you for entrusting you children in my care.  I hope this year is our best one yet!

At the back-to-school bar-b-q there will be time for sharing and questions.  I plan to go over our daily schedule, homework expectations as well as any `housekeeping`business that might need attending to.  There will also be time for your child to show you around.

If you have any questions, please feel free to comment on the daily blog- I receive daily email updates, so every comment will be read and responded to.  If you have more urgent concerns, please do contact me by phone at the school.

Thank you so very much for joining me on this journey!  I can`t wait to watch your child continue to grow and develop into the wonderful person they were meant to be.

Here are some pictures of the students getting off the bus on their first day of school!
