Maple Leaf of the Week

We started Maple Leaf of the Week last week but with school being closed due to the cold we fit in two Maple Leaves as well as a birthday this week!  It made our week extra fun! In addition we learned about The Chinese New Year celebration.  We also heard some books about Valentine's Day, made our Valentine's Day Bags, had music with Mrs. Jenkins, and made rubbings of animal footprints!   Mrs. Chyko has been teaching the kids how to play hopscotch on a Melissa and Doug rug. 

Violet was Maple Leaf this week and she celebrated her birthday on February 6th!

Violet's Dad came in to help celebrate her birthday/Maple Leaf Week.  He read us 2 stories about Mermaids!  We made an under the sea project with stickers and smelly markers as well as using beads to make super cool necklaces.  We also had fun listening to the music from Little Mermaid while we were making our projects!

Working on our sea project!

Parker was our Maple Leaf last week.  His mom was planning to come to school to celebrate last Thursday but we were closed due to the cold.  She came in this Thursday instead.  We learned that Parker's favorite story is Pigeon Takes a Bath.  We all loved hearing the story!

Then we got to make our very own Pigeon Projects to take home!!

 Thank you Violet and Parker for helping to make our week extra special!!
