Tuesday we learned about ants and how they work together. The students used their fingerprints to make their own ants all over their ant hill. On Thursday some exciting guest came into the classroom, and will be staying for a few weeks. Caterpillars! The students will be observing and writing in journals as the caterpillars go through their life cycle. Hopefully we will be releasing butterflies before spring break...and yes I'm already praying for nice weather!
In phonics the first grade has been reviewing many word families to help assist in fluent reading. They also learned the "ph" sound. We all agree that we speak an odd language. Kindergarten has been learning the "two vowels" rule. My goal is to get this song permanently stuck in their heads, like it is in mine!

In math the kindergarten has been focusing on counting money. They all know all four coin names and values. The first grade has started a new unit in math, and are learning some critical thinking and double digit adding and subtraction.
Next week we will continue to study bugs. and will hopefully see the caterpillars weave their chrysalises. Hope everyone has been enjoying the high school play this week, have a nice weekend!
