Reminders:
Ms. Heidi is planning an art show next month featuring one piece of art by each student at TOT Time. Please help her by bringing in one piece of art by your child to place in the marked blue box in the hallway. She would like it to be something done in art class. (usually has your child's name written on the back side at the bottom, middle of page.) The art will be returned to you after the show. Let us know if you have questions.
We seem to have some sickness moving through the school/room lately. Please help us by following school policy about when to keep your child home from school (fever/diarrhea/vomit free for 24 hours, NO thick, green/yellow nose drips). Thank you!
Now the fun part. I have so many great pictures for this post!
Back to Valentine's / Pajama day. We did a color matching activity that everyone was interested in!
And passed out Valentine's...
And we tried something we never have before...we watched a Veggie Tales movie for a special V Day treat! Look at them all sitting so nicely.
A few didn't want to finish the movie, so they came over to do some more color matching in our room.
We did a classifying puzzle: things that fly in the air, things that go on the road and things that go on the water.
For spirit day, Bridget's sister joined us...
So cute!
Then I brought in my son's train set for a day and Woo! Woo! It was a hit!
The new month of March brought in a new color: green!
This group is really getting the hang of sitting on the rug for books and activities.
Notice these two always sitting together on the rug. #friends
Did you know that St. Patrick lived in Ireland many years ago and used the shamrock to explain the Holy Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit?
We brought out the green Play-doh for some fine motor fun.
This group is so great at independent play. Lemley likes to squeeze her way into a corner somewhere to ensure some alone time.
They love to explore and try lots of different activities! Shape sorting...
The old standard, cars...
Babies...
And some serious laptop learning...
Again, sitting so nicely for a story...
And the big moment when they saw the firetruck!
They got to take turns sitting inside...
Graham was the only one who didn't want to get in...but he was still excited to be there. (We did eventually get him inside, mom.)
Check out our crew on the front of Engine 19!
This group has really grown since the beginning of the year. Not only are they physically bigger and have more hair :), but they really get into the things we do in the classroom, they're talking so much, and really learning a lot! It's hard to believe we only have a couple months of school left this year, but it's great to reflect back on how far we've come.
Hope you stay dry on this rainy, rainy Sunday...see you Wednesday!
