Mid-Autumn Festival Week

 Meet our new class pet! His name is Nibbles and he is an outgoing little guinea pig. Nibbles looooves to eat and always comes out to play. He will be going back this upcoming Wednesday and we will be getting a frog next!





In science, we worked on using our 5 senses and science tools. We did a little nature walk and recorded our observations into our science journals. We also worked on a booklet about what we use our 5 senses on.



This week in math, we have been working on representing our word problems with pictures up to 20. This upcoming week, we will continue to work on word problems but with subtraction instead.
We also learned that when we add, the number gets bigger. When we subtract, the number gets smaller.

In my class, you will see a lot of art work. We do a lot of drawing and coloring throughout the year. I think it is so therapeutic. Last year, my class loved all the coloring and drawing we did. This also works on fine motor skills! 

This week was a special week because we celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival! This event is one of the big 2 events the Vietnamese Dual Language Program hosts during the school year. In class, we learned about the celebration of this holiday and created lanterns to hang around the school.
I hope everyone had fun and enjoyed the show!




I apologize…on the monthly calendar in their folders, I messed up their specials schedule. Labor Day threw me off and so the rest of the month got throw off too! Oopsies!!!

Please make sure the kids are bringing a water bottle to school with them that they can take out to recess! Even though we have a morning recess time, it still gets pretty hot and humid out there. We have very little transitioning time between recess to specials that leaves us NO TIME to stop by the water fountain L Also, please make sure the water bottle is labeled so it does not get mixed up with another student by accident.
