News from the Jungle

Just a reminder —

We are a NUT FREE room. We continue to get snacks containing nuts. Children may not have any kinds of nuts or peanut butter in our classroom. Eating these at lunch is fine, but having them for snack is not allowed. Please help me by sending a nut free snack to school with your child.

Below please find upcoming events, including our upcoming spelling words for the rest of the school year:

Agenda for the Week

Reading and Writing: We continue working on using all of the skills we have learned to help us to become better readers and writers. Please practice sight words with your children at home. Your child should also be practicing writing by coming up with a sentence and writing down the sounds they hear in each word. Remind them to use spaces between their words.

Math: We have been working with a rekenrek and counting by 10’s. We have focused on counting on from any given number and have been practicing writing our numbers 0 – 100.

Science: We continue to learn about ocean animals and how they depend on their habitats! This week we learned more about ocean zones and the animals which live in each zone. We will continue to focus on ocean animals for the rest of the year!

Social Studies: We continue discussing democracy! We took a poll in class and casted votes on our favorite snack. Then we graphed our results. We did all of this after we came to an “informed” opinion about each snack to determine which one is the best.

Please do not send any snacks with nuts!

Children still need a snack every day! They get very hungry. We will have snack every day until the very last day of school. Please continue to send your child with a healthy snack each day! Thank you!
