WHAT'S HAPPENING IN EARLY LEARNERS?
Our Early Learners soared into February with excitement for our upcoming Valentine’s parties! We have been crafting our little hearts out making sweet projects and learning all about kindness, love, and respect! While we have been decorating our little hearts out, we have also continued fun winter-themed activities! We read the story The Snowy Day and even created our own snowy day pictures. We have practiced story sequencing, questioning skills, heart counting, and even some simple addition practice! Our next unit will be surrounded by cultural diversity in honor of Black History Month and clothing! Stay tuned for classroom pictures!
SPEECH WITH MISS NATHANSON
In honor of Valentine's Day just around the corner, this week in our speech groups we read Happy Valentine's Day, Mouse. After reading the story, the students answered wh-questions pertaining to the story. They also did a sequencing/retelling activity about the story. They did a great job!
