March Happenings

In Bible, we are on a journey to the cross as we study Jesus' life.  Our God's Big Word this month is Sacrifice.  In addition to our Bible stories, we used the story The Spiffiest Giant in Town to help us understand and visualize what sacrifice means.  


Creating a palm branch to lay before Jesus as he rode into Jerusalem.  We shouted, 'Hosanna!' together as we read.



We have been taking a look into fairy tales in the last few weeks.  Here are some of the activities we did with The Three Little Pigs.   Next week, we will be comparing and contrasting different versions of the story.  We also explored Goldilocks and the Three Bears.  


 Here we are listening to the story on tape.  We turned the lights off to help us imagine what was taking place.    


Airplane Math! As pilots, we took turns landing the plane on the run way. 

One of the questions on our 'I Wonder' board was:  'Where do the buses go after they drop us off?'  We took a trip to the WSCS bus garage to discover the answer.  Mrs. K taught us all about the garage and the buses.   
                                             







Uu week got a little silly with stories about underwear! 
                                              (I cannot get this picture to flip!  Sorry!)

 We made our own bear in underwear.  

Chalk Letters



While studying the letter Ss, we decided to pretend we were superheros!  In the pictures below, we are pairing up and sharing the number on our partners super hero mask.

Transportation Unit


Here Titus is counting the passengers in his plane.  


After reading a story about airplanes, we flew planes down a number line.  Each 'pilot' told their partner where they landed their plan on the 'run way'.  


Here we are on Qq week.  Thank you for sending in your quilts.  We enjoyed sitting on them as we read a story about quilts.

Buddies and Valentines

Brrrr!  I hope you are all staying warm on this chilly weekend.  This blog update is all about pictures today.  Enjoy :) 

Valentines Party!  

Big thank you to everyone who planned, helped, and prepped for our party.  It was so much fun and I am thankful you all could be a part of our day.  




















In January our buddies came and read stories to us.  We did this instead of the sledding party.   Joy and I are hoping to reschedule sledding to this month.
