Observing Nature

Today in science, we went outside for class. We observed nature and recorded what we saw. Your child should have brought home a pencil sketch of what they observed.

Ramona

One of my favorite story book characters is Ramona Quimby. I have been reading Ramona the Pest by Beverly Cleary to this class. Today I realized that this one classroom, at times, seems like it is full of Ramona Quimbys! This is going to be an interesting year!!

Share Time

Today was our first Share Time. We all sat in a circle, then one person at a time went to the middle. Some children shared stories, some danced for us, and one sang us a song. We all had a good time. What a talented group of children!
