Week Of 3-28-11

This week our theme was ‘Pets’.  (We had another short week due to Inservice).  We discussed how to take care of our pets and on Monday the children made a dog and painted a fish.  On Tuesday and Wednesday our classes took a field trip to the Medford Veterinarian Clinic.  We also made a pattern snake and learned about how our pets grow.  Our letter for the week was Uu and we reviewed the number 5.

Next week our theme will be the ‘Zoo’.  We will be learning about a variety of zoo animals and the children will be making a giraffe, monkey and a zebra.  The children will also create a classroom book about what animals they might see at the zoo.  We will work on putting the numbers in order 1-10 and will use our sense of hearing to play an animals sounds game.  Our letter of the week will be Zz and we will review the numbers 6 & 7.
