Tuesday
This week in PE, we worked on throwing and catching, with exuberance!
The new Catbirds are getting their binders ready. Today they painted their names that will go in the spines of their binders. Then we will begin to collect photos and samples of their work to keep in their "books" (as they like to call them).
Building connections with our student teacher, Kaya.
Wednesday
Today we went to Meeting for Worship(MFW) in the Music Room with the Hummingbirds and the kindergarteners. We are learning to still our bodies and to breathe deeply to help us settle. Eventually we will join the rest of the Lower School for MFW at the meetinghouse.
Then it was time for Spanish. We are learning greetings and the words for different feelings
We introduced the Choice Time chart today. Friends "read" the cards using clues drawn in pictures in front of the words and chose which activity they want to participate in first.
Thursday
Our ChaChaCha ChaChaChallenge this week (and a little of last week) was pouring water into a cup. It is a task that takes quite a few skills, including paying attention to the water in the pitcher and how much is in the cup.
Library time
This week, we had our first music class in the music room. Keisha taught us how we come in and how we begin, and we practiced.
We remembered the Hello song and learned the goodbye sogn.
We gathered together to carry a huge board into the classroom.
We are going to use it for a project but first, we are using it as a balance beam.
