On circle we reviewed the lessons that were presented on circle: animal habitats, animal homes, and helpful and harmful animals. We also reviewed what a habitat is and the names of the five habitats we saw pictures of: forest, desert, savanna, rainforest, and arctic.

Take a look at our busy bees during our work time:

We continued to learn about animals and their homes. The children worked on an animal home matching worksheet. The children used their left to right skills to draw a line from the animal to their home.

The children had a fun time playing Jump Shark in Jumpbunch class. Coach Leon brought shark mats that the children jump on, over, and around of.

We are looking forward to the fun this afternoon in Arts Alive.

Reminder: There is no splash tomorrow.

Did you know that animals can be helpful to people?

We worked with our helpful and harmful animal lesson in the science area. We classified picture cards of animals that are helpful( they give us food and clothing, help us get rid of bugs, give us rides, etc.) and harmful( bite, sting, spread germs). The children were surprised by some of the animals and things they do to help us.

On circle we worked with our animal homes lesson in the science area. We matched animal picture cards to picture cards of their homes. (i.e. a bird and a nest) We also reviewed what a habitat is and worked with the animal habitat lesson.

Be on the look out for fancy necklaces made by the children. We put necklace making on our art shelf and the children are eager to create!

What a fun filled day we had today!

Our fun started with Jumpbunch. Coach Adrienne brought balls and a hoop for us to practice shooting baskets. We also had Coach Liam and Coach Ryan join our class to observe our class.

We also had a visit from Officer Anthony and Officer Teevah. They spoke to us about the things officers do and about being kind. They also brought coloring books and sticker badges.

The children LOVED having breakfast for lunch. It was a very special treat.

This afternoon we will have fun on our Arts Alive adventure.
