#2 blog Letter V #2, circle, and pink

This week we are doing our first science experiment of the school year.  We will be heading outside to make a volcano using vinegar,baking soda and food coloring.
We are using scissors for the first time this week, and will be learning how to hold them and that our thumb leads.  We will be cutting straight lines.  Please allow your child to practice his or her scissor skills at home.

Our letter is V and our color is pink.  We will be using our letter V's and flowers and making vases.   Our shape is still a circle and we will be incorporating it in to our centers as well by making our own faces.  We will be using  yarn for our hair, googly eyes and the children will be drawing their own noses and we will be using pink tissue paper as a pieced of popped bubble gum.





We will be using frogs and counting the correct number out and placing them on the log.





In Chapel we will learn about day 2 and that god created the sky and the clouds.  We will be coloring a blue sky in our journal and then allowing the children to place cotton clouds on their paper.




Our Star Student this week is Audrey, please bring enough snacks from the approved snack list and also a show and tell on Thursday.




As always, Thank you for allowing us to watch your child learn and  grow.  If you have any concerns, or questions don't hesitate to contact one of us.
