Love your neighbor 01/19/2012
Construction workers, police officers and doctors abound in the Robin class this week! As we finished our unit on Community Helpers, we enjoyed making a tool belt and pretending to be construction workers. Our favorite memory of this was watching the girls don yellow construction worker hats, grab baby dolls and blankets while proceeding to parade around the room. We also made police officer hats and badges, and explored a doctor's kit. In chapel, Pastor Amy taught us about how God taught Moses the 10 laws on the summit of Mount Sinai, focusing on "Love your neighbor, as you love yourself". We took that idea to our classroom, and applied it to how we play together and share our toys. The Robins sang "The People in Our Neighborhood" in music class with Mrs. S, which you may remember hearing on Sesame Street when you were a child! Our colors of the month are black and white, and we are zooming through the alphabet... we are now working on the letter "O". We are also working on the first letter of our names. Our shape wall is filling up! We have been working really hard on hearts, rectangles, circles, stars and ovals. We also continue counting from 1-10 in English and Spanish. The Robins are so smart and really doing a great job with this! Try counting at home with your child! We look forward to our unit on dinosaurs next week. This is always a favorite with the kids. Have a wonderful weekend, Ms. Sasha and Ms. Susana CommentsLeave a Reply | AuthorsMs. Sasha and Ms. Susana are the teachers in the Rockin' Robins class, our younger 2's class ArchivesMay 2012 Categories |
