Happy Friday from Mrs. Mudd's class!
While many friends enjoyed free choice, some friends spent a little time with me this morning completing a January interview! It sure is fun to watch and listen as each decides how he/she wants to answer each question, and draw a quick picture of something he/she likes to do in the winter!
We noticed we started another new month, January (and even a new year)! It was time to check out the December pie graph! We could tell just by looking that snowy (red) and rainy (blue) had the least days in December, while cloudy (black) had the most. Understanding more, less, and the same is an early math skill.
We loved that Tricky Mouse came to visit us our first week back after break! Today he brought numbers. But, he couldn't fool us, we knew all these numbers and found him every time! Recognizing/identifying numbers is an early math skill.
Yay for another day spent outside for large motor time!
We were excited to have a guest reader from church! Pastor Reitz read us two books, all about fun things you can do in the winter!
Before jumping into free choice Friday, we took a few minutes to work on our portion of a collaborative art piece for National Lutheran Schools Week. Each friend colored a coffee filter however he/she chose. Each filter was then cut into the shape of a butterfly. Later, after every PS - 8th grader completes one of these, they will be transformed into a large cross!
Then...check out some of our choices for free choice Friday!
After working hard in the classroom, we enjoyed large motor time on the "big kid" playground!
During Jesus Time today Zippy was playing and didn't want to stop playing to go to Chapel. We learned that it's important to hear God's Word, even if we are having the most fun playing. So important that we stop playing and play again later. It's fun to go to God's house and hear about how much Jesus loves us!
Have a great weekend!
