Week of February 6

Hello parents,  
This week we  flew from Israel to Poland we were so lucky to have Klaudis and Agnieszka  welcome us in Poland and share with us lots of interesting things about the country.  We learned about the country, what they like to do for fun ( which sport) , what their money is called , the kinds of animals that live there, what language they speak, How they travel, the capital, longest river, which famous composer was born there and lots more interesting information . For snack Klaudia and her Mom made us Chrysciku (favorki)  also known as Angel Wings a yummy treat with powdered sugar. You can see the children adding more sugar as Agnieszka say "you can never have too much sugar" !   They also made each child a wonderful coloring book full of all of the things they taught us.  The children loved using red and gold to color the pictures.   
We began working on our Valentine's Day projects but shhhh we cannot share that information as it is a surprise.  
We will have a party on Valentine's Day if you could send your child in with Valentine's for the class and a treat if you would like I will have a list outside the classroom. Please sign up for something to bring in for the party.  
 
 
Enjoy your weekend  Susan and Sara

Week of January 30

Hello parents! 

Happy first week of February! This week your children have been learning about groundhogs and groundhog day. We have begun working on our valentines and study of famous artists. Your children have learned about Georgia O'keeffe. They learned where she is from, how she became interested in painting, what types of things she likes to paint and of course some of her famous paintings. The children each created their own painting on canvas of ladder to the moon.  

We spent some time working on our orange workbooks. The children are all in different places within the book some are beginning to write their combination of uppercase and lowercase letters in words. Others are writing sentences. 
We spent some time decorating our classroom for our Super Bowl party. The children cut, painted and colored footballs and players. They practiced writing the words Super Bowl , football, 51, groundhog, sun, shadow, sleep, six, cloud and sun.  

In music this week the children continued learning how to properly hold the violin. They also sang songs with Ms. Lisa about the violin and played the strings on it as well. The children really enjoy violin and practicing.

This week during Mandarin class we reviewed the colors of red and blue, and sang our Hello Song using red and blue hand bells. We also revisited the greetings "How are you?" and "How are you today?" and learned how to respond to those questions. Then, using Mr. & Mrs. Potato Head, we reviewed our facial features.

Have a great weekend!

Yuting  Next week we will travel to Poland.  Have a great weekend! Go pats!🏈
