Word art

Today we used the little muscles in our fingers to rip up construction paper into little pieces. This will help strengthen our fine motor skills, which we need for writing. Then we glued the little pieces onto an outline of our name! We made colourful word art!

Mrs. Havixbeck. gym teacher, was in our classroom this morning. She read us a story, and talked about how we are all special in our own way. Then we had to draw pictures to represent how we are special! (This is part of the "Project 11" program.)

Centre Time....

We started the regular rotation of our SHARING TIME today. These kids brought something red to show and tell us about. Everyone else used their good listening skills to be a good audience. Then after the speaker was finished talking about his item, the audience got a chance to ask questions. (We will be working on the difference between telling the speaker something and asking the speaker a question.)
