Field Trip!

     The trip to the TN Aquarium was a great success! Thank you to ALL the wonderful chaperones that helped make this trip run smoothly. I could not do it without you!
     We are going on two more field trips before this schoolyear ends; Tivoli Theatre (Aesop's Fables play) and The Mayfield Dairy Farms. I will let you know the set dates asap.
     Also, please be reminded that we will be out of school March 21st-25th for SPRING BREAK! If you are planning to travel, please do so safely. 
     Here are some fun pictures of our trip to the aquarium....................

Me Bags!

The children had such a good time listening and looking at things that are important to them and to each of their friends. We all learned a lot about one another!

Many Things Coming Up!

    

 Well, we have not yet had anymore snow! Hopefully it will hold off for a while to let us catch up in the classroom.
        We have many things coming up to keep us very busy.

1. "Me Bags" are due this Friday, January 28th. I sent home a brown paper bag with a poem attached. Please have your child put three things in that bag that represent them. We will share our bags with the class on Friday and Monday.
2. Valentine's- please have your child send in their Valentine's to friends in their class by Feb. 7. The party is not until Monday the 14th, but we will have the children put their Valentine's in their friend's bags throughout the week in an art center.
3. 100th Day of school- We have been keeping up with how many days we come to school since the beginning of the year. This is a great way to also reinforce counting. I will be sending home a baggie with your child. Please collect 100 items of only ONE thing (example- 100 pennies, 100 cheese its, 100 pieces of pasta). We will share these on February 8th.

WHOOOOOSH! I know this seems like a lot, but this is a very fun time for your child (and for Mrs. Brenda and me) :0)

New Website (Finally)

    Finally, I have made an attempt at making a site for you to look at information about our wonderful class. I will try hard to update this site periodically with important information along with some fun pictures as well. Here are some pictures from our first field trip to the apple orchard......

    

     We were unable to make it to our field trip to see the "Polar Express" due to "inclement weather". The Kindergarten teachers will cooperatively decide on another trip to take its place. I will let you know as soon as we decide.
