I have NO clue where April went. It's gone and I never updated you all on what we did. we had fun learning about gardens and how they grow and what fun things you can grow in a garden. Sorry i didn't send out more updates!
with May here, I will let you know we are learning about opposites and will be working on our class graduation program.
Each child will have a part to say in the program. I will send the parts home so they can practice them. (they are short I promise!) I am sending home an invitation with the program details.
Monday the 7th is backwards day and crazy hair day! Clothes backwards and hair wacky. and yes you can reassure your child that even Miss Hanah will be silly.
We are also going to have CLASS PICTURES on Wednesday the 9th. We will be taking them the first part of class on next Wednesday. Please make sure your child comes dressed ready for pictures. :) Miss Ashley, Dax's mom will be taking them for us. I'm excited about them!
so make sure you check your child's backpack for reminders. I don't want anyone missing this information. I can't believe the end of the year is so close! makes me a little sad! I'm going to miss these cute kiddos!

neigh, cluck, cock-a-doodle-do, and maaa.
We would be great farmers! learning about farm animals has been so much fun. Horses that work hard, chickens that give us eggs, Roosters that wake us up, and goats that well.. eat things. (we learned about leprechauns too but i don't think they live on a farm!)
Thursday the 29th of March, we are going on a field trip to Hamblin Dairy Farms. 3454 W. 2700 S. Syracuse. Field trip starts at 9:30. Please only students, moms (or dad's) and siblings. They only allow 25 people total. (all together, including the siblings that usually come, we are at 23 so we should be fine.) This should be a really fun field trip!

Down on the Farm.
Yee Haw! we are learning all about farms. Pet day was so much fun. It was cute to see all their different pets and have them tell us all about them! We learned all about how a farm works. Then all about cows and their job on a farm. We even made our own butter, and got to eat it. It was a lot of fun! Today we learned about sheep and how we use their wool to make clothes. They thought that was pretty cool.
This Thursday is our Saint Patrick's day party. Should be lots of fun! make sure to have your child wear green! Then don't forget that Monday the 19th there is no school.

Community helpers
Our month on community helpers was a great month! we covered every kind of community helper from bankers to veterinarians. and today was a great day to finish off with the kids talking about what their parents do for career day. The kids were so cute standing up in front of their class doing their presentations. I can tell they have been practicing, they did a great job! We also celebrated leap year today! we held leaping contests, and did lily pad counting for math. it was fun!
Please make sure you are checking backpacks for notices and calendars for important dates. Some of the kids were unaware of the career day we had today. If your child was one of the ones that missed it today we would love to hear what their mom or dad does for work tomorrow, or next Wednesday. We just have them do a small presentation in front of the class telling us what mom or dad does for work. they can bring visual aides, pictures, or come dressed up. it doesn't have to be very long. it's always fun to see them talk about mom or dad.
To kick off Farm month on Monday March 5th, is PET DAY! another day the kids have been looking forward to! on pet day each child will be able to bring in their pet to share with the class. if your child 's pet is too big, or excited, to bring into the class then you can have your child bring in pictures, or draw a picture of their pet, and things that they use to play with them. if your pet is brought in a container, and can stay, you are more than welcome to leave it with us for the whole class. if your child does not have a pet they can bring a stuffed pet or a drawing of a pet they would like to have one day or a picture of a neighbor pet they love. Should be a lot of fun! (if you have a pet that can't stay, but still want to bring, feel free to bring them at the beginning of class and let the kids see!)

will you be my Valetine?
Our Valentines party is on Monday! We made Valentines boxes on Wednesday (when we talked about mail carriers) and the kids are so excited to fill them with valentines! Please make sure to send a Valentine for everyone in the class with your child on Monday. There are 8 kids total in class (including your own child). We welcomed a new little girl to class this week. I don't know who is more excited for her to be in class. Her, or the other kids! If you need a class list email me or text me and I'll send you the names. I just love your cute little kids!
today we had a guest speaker come in. Nurse Jenell talked about how nurses are community helpers and what they do. they had so much fun! She let them listen to their hearts (and bellies) with a stethoscope, she brought scrubs for them to wear and surgical hats, and gloves. they had so much fun playing nurse/doctor with the babies in our dramatic center. So much fun to have a guest speaker in class.

the wheels go around and around...
what a fun month this has been! we used our size comparison skills to outline trucks with straws and lids, then painted with cars, built tractors out of shapes, went on a field trip to the fire station! then we talked about recycling and garbage trucks, used our imaginations and pre writing skills to make a story about bikes. we made paper airplanes and flew them around the room. we floated boats in water, made pattern trains. (they are REALLY good at patterns!) and we finished it off with monster truck puzzles.
So much fun and so much learning! math, science, writing, patterns, letters, numbers, and applying it all to what is happening around us. they have been having fun! our letters this month were Aa, Bb, Dd, Ii, and Pp.
february is all about community helpers. we have a field trip on thursday the 23rd to great harvest bread, and a valentines party on monday the 13th. then on wednesday the 29th we are talking about what YOU do. yep, your child gets to come in and talk to the whole class about what you as a mom or a dad do. i'll send more info home when it gets closer. :)
i enjoy teaching these kids every day! they are so cute and i love seeing them learn so much and excel! thanks for giving me the opportunity to do so. if you need anything at all please let me know!
(and yes i COMPLETELY forgot to switch books today and send home new ones. so if your child still has one just send it wednesday and i will switch them then!)
