Last week, we were able to celebrate Fire Prevention Week with a special program with the West Allis Fire Department and Firefighter Will. The children were very engaged in both presentations!
Monday is our long awaited trip to Glacier Rock Farm. We will follow up this week with an inquiry unit on farm animals. The children have already come up with questions about some of the farm animals. They went on the website pebblego.com in the computer lab last Thursday with the assistance of Miss Nuss our Technology Media teacher. The children were introduced to researching some of the farm animals that they were interested in. We will go back to the computer lab this Thursday to log "new learning" about an animal.
We are also going to drink white milk and then turn it into chocolate and strawberry milk as we learn about cows and milk. We will graph which is our favorite milk.
In Math, the students are working on writing addition number sentences and counting by twos, fives, and tens.
The kindergarteners will begin a kindergarten screening called PALS-K this week. It will be a good tool to evaluate student progress.
I want to thank all of the parents who came to conferences this past week. I will be looking forward to seeing a few more of you this week!
