The students are learning about rainbow foods and the importance of eating different colors of fruits and vegetables every week. On Friday, if you child ordered school lunch, the cafeteria offered up four different colors of fruits. One of our students ate the biggest rainbow by eating yellow bananas, orange peaches, red strawberries, and green kiwi all at the same sitting! So I ask you, has your child eaten a rainbow this week?

Remember, Book Fair is also this week in the media center! Book Fair and scholastic book club are separate. Book Fair is put on by the PTA and gives parents an opportunity to shop for books at the school. We joined Ms. Walker's class to learn about sugar bugs and ways to keep them from hurting our teeth. For the next few weeks we will talk about healthy bodies from our teeth to our toes!
The students brought home a "fuzzy" piece of contact paper in their book bags this week. Why? I wish I could say that could say that I planned for the students to adore their "wool blankets" (as one little girl called it), but to be perfectly honest, they took them home because one child said, "Can we take these home?" Although I have to admit that watching the students rub them on their cheeks and sleep with them at rest time was pretty adorable.
The reason we had the sheets was for a math activity. Each student threw cotton balls at a sheep and used positional words to describe where the cotton balls landed (on, over, under the sheep). Then each student graphed how many cotton balls landed ON the sheep. We then discussed who had the most, least and the same number (if you knew the math word for "the same" is equal give your brain a kiss). |
