Learning about Pollution

We did an experiment called Freddie the Fish today to help the students visualize water pollution.  We then read about water, air and land pollution and tried to brainstorm ways to help prevent these. 

Treemont Field Trip

We had a really nice trip to Treemont today.  The kids sang beautifully and really brightened the residents day.  They all seemed very happy to have visitors and the kids all behaved well. 

Tis' the Season

We made Christmas cards today for our Grandfriends we will be visiting at Treemont on Monday.  We listened to Christmas music and used stamps and stickers and decorated the cards.  It was a nice break from work for a little while. 

Thank you for allowing your child to dress up today.  They all looked so nice.  I am sure the pictures will look amazing.  I know my son's was last year. 

Grandparent's Day!

We had a very nice day yesterday.  I really enjoyed meeting so many grandparents.  They were all so sweet.  The children sang beautifully.  Please thank them again for coming and helping to make it such a wonderful day.  

Pumpkin Art

In Art they are painting their pumpkins like works of famous artists.  They are working hard and the pumpkins look great.  They will be on display tomorrow afternoon and next week in the glass hallway. 

Geography

We are learning about Geography in Social Studies.  Today we played a geography game to help us recognize the different land and water forms. 

Fairy Tales

We are reading and beginning to write Fairy Tales.  We are learning about using vivid verbs and adjectives to make our stories more interesting.
