End of the Year Party Pics
Here are some pics from our End of the Year Party--a series of different outdoor stations, including bubbles, sponge relays, hula hoops, sidewalk chalk, limbo, water fun, walking stilts, face painting, putt-putting, and throwing wet sponges at the teachers faces. The kiddos truly had a blast! However, as I was having sponges thrown at me a majority of the time, I was only able to take a handful of pictures.

The Marriage of Q and U - May 11, 2012
A wedding was held in our classroom yesterday--we joined the letters "Q" and "U" in matrimony, as "Q" is rarely seen without "U" by its side in words of the English language. The mother and father of both the bride and groom were present for the service, as well as a flower girl, a ring bearer, 4 bridesmaids, 4 groomsmen, and 4 ushers. Cake and refreshments were served after the service. The kiddos thoroughly enjoyed it and hopefully, this will help them to remember the concept!

Unit 5, Week 6 - This is the Way We Go to School
This week our Focus Story will be This is the Way We Go to School: A Book About Children Around the World. Through this book we will explore different regions of the world, their climates and physical attributes, and how these characteristics effect the way that children get to school each day. We will discuss how this compares to the way/s that we get to school.
Our Target Skill this week is learning to draw conclusions from evidence within the book (use to clues that the pictures and text give us). We will also continue to make predictions, retell a story, and identify the main idea of a story. We will work to identify, form, and match the letters 'Qq' and 'Yy' to their phonemes--/kw/ and /y/, respectively.
Amazing Words: cable car, trolley, horse-and-buggy, skis, Metro line, vaporetto
High-Frequency Words: where, come (Please continue to practice all of our "Popcorn Words" at home!)
Letters: Qq and Yy
