Rosie's Walk: Today we completed two pages in our Rosie's Walk book - "over the haystack" and "past the mill". These proved to be difficult, as we had to use a brad (brass fastener) to connect pieces to our pages.
Cinco de Mayo: To celebrate Cinco de Mayo, we discussed the Mexican flag, counted numbers one through twelve (in Spanish) and the colors translated from English to Spanish. Students then colored their flags and crayons and we practiced using Spanish for things such as saying thank you "Gracias" and goodbye "Adios".
Library: Today Mrs. Williams read us two books about stars, a fiction story and a non-fiction piece of literature. The fiction book was Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, which the students recognized as a well known song.
Math: After introducing Japanese Boys Day, students were informed that to celebrate, families in Japan fly carp wind socks outside of their home (displaying as many carp as there are boys in the household). Students were asked to count and record how many were on each flagpole and some chose to sunsequently color them in.
Today I received a very generous basket FILLED with school supplies in recognition of Teacher Appreciation Week - thank you to all who contributed. We appreciate and will get lots of use out of these items!!!
