October 6

Today we learned about calling 9-1-1 for help.  We talked and learned about what was a 9-1-1- emergency and how to call.  We took turns dialing 9-1-1 on our Promethean Board.  This topic was a little scary for some children, so please talk with your children about 9-1-1.  We will continue to talk about it over the next couple days.  We are building a word wall in our classroom.  Word wall words are important words we need to know how to spell, read and write "just like that!"  We have practiced writing to, go, the, it and can. In the afternoon we practiced making sculptures out of clay to represent American symbols.  We made sculptures of the Statue of Liberty, the American flag, the Liberty Bell, and the bald eagle.  We are going to make sculptures again later in the week and let them dry so we can paint them. 
We are working hard to learn to take better care of our classroom tools, supplies and toys.  We are also making sure we take better care of our classroom library.  Many books are being torn and put in the wrong places.  We know we need to put things back in their proper place so we don't waste time looking for them.  We are also learning to use paper to practice writing, and not just scribble on and throw away. 

Watch our websites for updates over the next couple days!
