Week 14 News

This Week 
This week our theme was nutrition. On Monday we talked about what foods are healthy and unhealthy. We cut out magazine pictures of food and sorted them into the two different groups. Tuesday we learned about MyPlate.  MyPlate is a guide to help students  make good eating choices. It shows the different food groups and how much we should be eating daily. We used a paper plate and magazine pictures to create our own healthy meals. Wednesday we learned that eating healthy is important to keep our internal organs functioning correctly. Our buddy class came and helped us make a life size picture of our insides. Thursday we read It Looked Like Spilt Milk and made our own version of the book. Friday we read Stone Soup and practiced recalling the beginning, middle and ending of the story. 

Good News
Our class has received 750 C.A.T.S. cards

Family Trees
Today we are sending home a tree that your child made. On Monday, November 26th we will be starting our family unit. I would like all the students to use the tree to make a family tree using pictures of their immediate family. The students will share these trees with the class and we will display them in the hallway. At the end of the month the tree will be put in your child's  memory book so you will not get the pictures back until the end of the year. 


Weather
The weather is changing and the mornings are getting colder. Please be sure to send coats, gloves, and hats with your child. The playground can be very windy and cold.
