It's hard to believe January is coming to an end. Here are several photos from some activities we have done in January. We read 3 different versions of 'The Gingerbread Man/Baby' and did a lot of activities to go with that and sequencing. We've also been working on sequencing with 'The Mitten.' The kids are doing great with being able to tell who the characters are and where the setting is. We've also been working on words that rhyme with hat & bed. We've also been working on whole body listening which is what our social story is about this month. We have learned that we listen with our eyes, ears, mouth, hands, arms, legs & feet. We know our friends are listening if we're sitting still, not talking, looking at who is talking and not touching our neighbor :)
Our Valentine's Day Party will be on Thursday, February 11th. We need some volunteers to send some items for the party which I will be sending a note home & names for Valentine's :)
AM class: 16 students (10 boys, 6 girls) PM class: 11 students (9 boys, 2 girls)
