What's Been Happening
We have had a great two weeks. We have very busy. This past week we turned our dramatic play center into a Pet Shop. The children made bones, pet food, posters, signs, pet beds, cages and leashes for our pets. On Friday they got to make shopping lists, label the animals, be a cashier and shop in the Pet Shop. I told the children that they were welcome to add to our supply of (stuffed) pets if they like this week. I also was wondering if we could borrow a toy doctor's kit.
A Look Ahead
This week we will continue to work with our unit on numbers and start a unit on shapes. We are writing about different pets. In reading we will be working on high frequency words, rhyming and letter sounds. In science we will continue learning about living things. In social studies we will be starting a unit titled "Change Over Time." We will be learning about how things have changed in the world around us.
