Good Morning!



Let's learn about ants ...



Literacy:


Can you spell the word "ant"?  Lets think of all of the different words we can make that rhyme with ant.  Remember that rhyming words end with the same sound!  

Science/Writing/Art:





In your visual journal, lets draw (or print) and label a picture of an ant!   They are the perfect insect to see the 3 body parts, 6 legs, 2 eyes and 2 antennae.  You can make small ants or one big one!  

Have you ever had ants on a log???  Here are the directions to make this delicious (and healthy) treat 
Looking for an easy-peasy printable recipe to keep your kid occupied in the kitchen and to help with early math practice? This printable Ants on a Log recipe is just the thing to quell after-school cravings and reinforce real-life counting skills. #educationdotcom

What a crazy, cold week it has been!  It has been/is very chilly in our classroom and school.  As well as ensuring that your child is dressed for being outside, please send him/her in a hoodie or sweater for the time inside the school.  Thank you!!!! Our class has been quite small this week as we have been missing between 5 and 10 students each day!  I don't blame you ... if I wasn't a teacher, I would be at home with my children as well!  Although the school is open, it is your decision whether you feel comfortable sending your child in such extreme cold.  Please let the office know (or send me a quick email) letting us know if your child will be absent.  A reminder that, on blue days, students come into the school as soon as they arrive.  Upon dismissal, please feel free to come to our back door and come in while we are getting ready.  A few extra hands at dismissal on days like these would be welcome! If your child has come home using the words "barista", "

Good morning friends! Sorry about the mix-up with the story yesterday.  I would like to say that it won't happen again, but it might!  Maybe I was just testing you to see who is checking out the blog!

Estimation Results: Guided Drawing Easter Bunny:  You will need a piece of paper (the bigger the better) and something to draw with.

Art:   I absolutely love this idea of "Mailing a Hug". I know it requires a long piece of paper which not all of us have at home.  Think of using the backside of wra
