We focused on learning about insects this week. We learned about the 3 body parts (head, thorax, abdomen) and learned a song to help us remember the names. We listed all of the insects we could think of on our white board, each child had to come up with an idea. Ask your child what their favorite bug is!! We used tissue paper and glue to create a beautiful dragonfly during art! We heard several books about insects including The Very Quiet Click Beetle by Eric Carle and Bug Garden by Lisa Moser! Lisa visited our class to read Bug Garden to us and talk to us about what an author does and how she started writing!

Brooke was our Maple Leaf of the Week! We had fun learning about her favorite things when she shared her poster with us! On Tuesday she brought in a special treat...rice krispie treats with sprinkles...yum!! On Thursday her mom visited our classroom. We heard one of Brooke's favorite stories about Clifford and she showed us her stuffed Clifford and Emily Elizabeth doll. Brooke wants to be a mermaid when she grows up so she and her mom brought in a special craft for us to make. We had so much fun putting mermaid stickers and other sea creatures on a blue paper plate...then we used scissors and created seaweed with crepe paper. Thanks Brooke for making our week so much fun!
