A Wonderful Celebration!



Mrs. Festa and I  are so incredibly proud of all the hard work  the children put into our celebration!    We had so much fun filming our sports in the Innovation Lab.  We hope you enjoyed the show! 

Thank you to all who contributed with food/drinks.  Everything was delicious.

A busy week!

Hello!  We are working very hard to practice our lines and our songs for next week's EC/K Celebration.  Each morning, we practice for about an hour with our friends in N3, PreK 4 and Kindergarten.  We can not wait for you to see our show!

Just a reminder:  The EC/K celebration is on Wednesday, April 25th at 8:30 a.m.
 
 
 
 
On Wednesday and Thursday we were invited by our Kindergarten and First grade friends to come a see their hard work as they performed a puppet show (K) and skits of three Fairytales (1st).  We enjoyed the shows and thought they did a great job!

In STEAM we started to discuss the concept of coding.  We did this by playing the game Simon Says.  Just as Simon tells the others what to do, we tell the robot what we want it to do.  The N2 begins building code by using colors. 
 
 
 
With all that going on, we still found time to be hard workers! 
 

 
Thank you to all that have signed up to bring something to our celebration!  The EC Teachers can not thank you enough!  We can not wait for you to see our show.
 
 
Have a great weekend!

Welcome Back!

  Hello!  I hope everyone had a happy Easter and an enjoyable break.  We are all happy to be back and get back into our classroom routine.  

Back in the swing of things!




This week we have been talking about weather.  We read "It looked Like Spilt Milk" by Charles G. Shaw.  We talked about the different shapes of clouds we see in the sky.  In Science, we created our own rain and clouds in a jar.  We filled a jar with water, topped it off with shaving cream, and then added a few drops of blue food coloring.  The food coloring traveled through the clouds (shaving cream) causing it to rain into our jar.


 

  We loved making it rain but we sure hope Mr. Sun shows up soon!!!  

 

 

  This week you should have received an email regarding our EC/K celebration.  Please see below as a friendly reminder.
