Easter

I hope everyone had a nice break.  I know the kids had many things to share yesterday, when they returned to school.  I love "share time" after we return from a break or the weekend.  I find out so many great things about what families do on weekends.  

For Easter/Spring we made bunnies-learning how to make a paper chain, sequences eggs with numbers 1-20, read the story of Peter Rabbit and made him, and dyed Easter Eggs.  We ready many bunny, duck, chick, and Easter Books.  Overall Peter Rabbit was our favorite.  We sequenced the story and watched the movie.  We also made "Bunny Baskets" to take our Easter Eggs home in!

Here are some before and after pictures!

Just a few reminders:
We are in need of Styrofoam bowls, old tub socks, and grass seed to make our Green Haired Creatures!  We would love some donations!  The Crete Elementary Carnival is Friday, April 12th from 6:00-8:00 p.m.  Tickets can be purchased  next week after school!

Dental Health

I have been neglecting this blog lately, but I plan to keep everyone updated with the end of the year events.  In February we learned about Dental Health and the importance of brushing our teeth twice a day.  We had a local dentist come in and talk to us about proper teeth care. 

Graphing our favorite tooth paste!  Bubble Gum was our favorite! 

We also learned about Nutrition and the new "Nutrition Plate" we sorted groups food into their food groups.  We first sorted "real" foods and then sorted "paper" ones to take home!
