Panda News

Our Halloween celebration was a success. The children had a wonderful time. Check out the new photos I added to Flickr.  Thank you for all the donations and help.  I couldn't do it without you! 

Here is a glimpse of our week in the Panda class:

Language arts:  The children wrote a piggy back version of Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? using their costume photos.  We have focused on the word see & I.  We have been working on reading familiar storybooks. The kids are practicing read the books sounding like the author.   We have worked on the sounds m, n, r & l.  The Pandas are doing a great job with writing the capital letters the school way.

Math:  We played various Halloween math games.   We have begun to introduce writing the numerals 1-10.  Dr. Jean has a great song to help with formation.  I will put a link on the blog.  The students have made great progress this quarter!

Art:  We have begun to make some fall and Thanksgiving art.  The students made an owl last week and have begun their work on a turkey.
