September 27- October 1

This was a week full of farm fun!

Pigs!Of course you can't have a pig on a farm unless you have mud. So....we made chocoloate pudding mud puddles!
First you must mix the milk and the pudding and let it sit until it's like pudding instead of milk!

Then you spread it all around.....

Farm books of all types.... But our favorite book was Mrs. Wishy Washy...
Friday we made pig cookies. Pink icing, a sugar cookie, 1 large pink marshmellow, 2 butterscotch chips, 2 chocoloate chips and a popsickle stick are all you need!

Students spreading their pink icing to make the pig body.

Something you would find on the farm was our show and tell topic this week!

Friday, September 17

Since our letter this week was P we all wore our PJ's to school!We also read the book If You Give a Pig a Pancake so we made some pancakes.
While mixing up the pancake batter, Mrs. Abraham talked with the students about the use of measuring cups, and what a recipe is, and why we must follow the recipe.

Earlier in the week we saw a picture of Mrs. Nancy's purple cow. This morning Mrs. Nancy milked Petunia and brought us some of her milk! We thought we heard a mooooooo so the children went to see if they could find Petunia around the school- but she wasn't anywhere to be found.

Here we are eating our yummy pancakes and drinking purple milk.

Yummy yum yum!

Letter P and C Show and Tell

Show and Tell for yellow objects!

August 9-13

This week our focus was on learning the rules and procedures of the classroom. Each day we focused on one rule and one procedure and practiced it until it was mastered! Here you see the students doing centers.
Walking in a strait line is a challenge for studnets who have never been required to do so! Two feet in the square by the blue!!

The playground is one of the student's favorite spots. There were lots of laughs and squeals on the playground this week. The slide is so inviting that the students want to slide down all together. Each day we practice skills and writing on our "Morning News". The helper points to the words as Mrs. Abraham reads, and then the students help fill in the blanks. At the end of the day, the helper takes home the morning news. You can see the students in the top left picture with their spy glasses on to "see what they can see"!Our color this week was RED so for show-and-tell the students brought something red! It was the best turn out for show and tell I've ever seen.
