Ms. Beth's Newsletter May 26th, 2017

Classroom News 
In the past two weeks, our focus has been on Plains and Rainforest animals.  We talked about the habitats they live in, the different kinds of animals, made a class book On Safari, created giraffes by painting spots with duplo blocks then cutting and gluing, read Honey, Honey, LionBill and Pete, and Giraffe Trouble, watched a video “All About Animals”, and sang zoo songs.  Last week in our small groups we made zebra stripe Z’s with paint and small brushes, practiced writing 4, 5, 6, and wrote our class book page.  This week in our small groups we made Jaguar J’s, practiced writing 7, 8, 9, and finished our 4K book. We also had a special guest, Dr. Mary Jo Lectner, come to our class and read us a story about bullying and being kind.  She also gave each of your children a book to take home to keep!  On Friday, we celebrated our animal study by watching the movie “Zootopia”, enjoying a trail mix snack, and relaxing with friends.
