Some words that start with E are elbow, egg, elephant, eye, etc.   Some words that start with H are horse, hair, hat, hammer, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We practiced patterning skills.  We practiced simple ABAB patterns with unifix cubes (for example, red, blue, red, blue).  We also practiced sorting skills.  The students practiced these skills with sorting bears.

The students used their observation skills by looking at the different colors, shapes, and lines and determined what Leaf Man looked like.  Some students noticed that he looked like a bird, while others noticed he looked like bugs or even flowers.

Loki is a Dearborn K9 dog who helps Officer Gibson find hidden things, as well as people!  Officer Gibson explained how Loki uses his sense of smell to locate things that are really hard to find AND people who may be missing.  Loki showed off his skills by looking for things in the classroom and alerting Officer Gibson when he found them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also got to see the inside of the police car, as well as where Loki sits.
