Hello JK parents!

It was another warm day outside today and the JK's enjoyed exploring during recess.
Here are a few things we did today:
Daily 5-The Jk's practiced their letter name and sound recognition skills with a fun alphabet game, each student had the opportunity to accept a letter challenge!
Language-In connection to our UOI unit of Living and non-living Things, the students continued to practice their printing skills in their Journals today, each JK traced or printed on their own the sentence "My favorite animal is _____________".
Science/UOI-We were very excited to learn more about Living Things with a trip to visit the High School Science Lab.  Mr. Iqbal the High School Science teacher was kind enough to show the Jk's the chicken eggs they have in an incubator and the life cycle of the animal.  The Jk's were inquisitive and had lots to talk about and share when we got back to class.

Reminders:
-There are still a few parents who have not handed in Legoland trip forms and money, please bring them in tomorrow if you would like you child to attend.  If you child is not attending the trip, they are to stay at home.
