Thanks for sending all the fun foods for our Five Senses unit. The students had tons of fun tasting things, and many of them learned that they like plums (apparently something they hadn't tried before). What a cool way to discover new foods! I learned today that the kindergartners WILL NOT be attending the assembly on Friday so we WILL have library after all. Yay! Tomorrow we have someone new joining us. Her name is Ms. Kembel, who is a Junior Field (a college student studying to become a teacher). Ms. Kembel will be with us Monday mornings and most of the day on Wednesdays. We look forward to meeting her. Amari was our Star of the Day. We learned that Amari has a baby brother, her favorite letter is F, her favorite number is 11, and her favorite color is purple. Amari likes Hannah Montana and rides a bike. Today we learned about verbs (action words) and made up some actions for everyone to try. Later in the week, students will write/draw verbs of their own that will be compiled into a class book that I will send home one family at a time.
