We had fun making up our own constellations. We also finished up learning about the desert with all the small animals that are found there. This week we're going to talk about going down the river, learning about alligators and beavers. We'll have fun pretending to float down the river observing all that we see. Miss Wanda’s Classes- This week we finish the alphabet with the letter "Z". We will be learning about the number zero and hearing zoo animal stories. Of course, we will learn about Zacchaeus and sing the song about this "wee, little man". We have been working hard on our songs for the luncheons and will be practicing with Miss Peggy. If the weather cooperates it would be nice to pay a visit to the nature trail. We have been waiting to have a fallen tree removed from the pathway. Miss Jan’s Class – The children had fun with the story The Three Little Pigs and the story told from the wolf’s point of view. It was nice to get outside and play without jackets. This week we will read nursery rhymes. Our letter for the week is Q. The children are working hard to remember all the songs we have learned through the year. They are excited to sing them at the luncheon on Thursday the 16th.
