Lead 21 –Literacy: Let’s Celebrate Unit theme “What are living things?”  This week we focused on the question, “What plants and animals are around us?”
Math: Marshmallow and Toothpick Shapes   The children had a blast creating and building 3-dimensional shapes using marshmallows and toothpicks.  Number Stories The children created their own number stories, draw pictures to illustrate their stories, and wrote the corresponding number sentences go along with their story.
Science: We have been learning about Spring Weather. Yes, learning about Spring Weather has also included the word “snow” this year.  The main focus has been on rain, wind, and sun.  The children have learned the song “Rain” and enjoy singing it as they work on their science projects in class.
         Special Activity: On Thursday, April 2nd we will be coloring Easter Eggs.  Please send two or three hard-boiled or blown eggs for your child to color.  Please talk to your child about not eating the eggs, since they are traveling to and from school and being handled by others.  We will also discuss this at school.  It works very well to transport the eggs in an egg carton. Just cut the egg carton in half and tape it closed.  The children are very excited about this activity.
Writing: The children are exploring words through poetry.  Stories from Read-Aloud Rhymes For The Very Young  by Jack Prelutsky were read and discussed.  They enjoyed visualizing and acting out the poems.
