Rhyming Rocks with Fox in Socks!

We had fun with rhyming words today as we became fox in socks after reading the Dr. Seuss book, Fox in Socks! We were even able to have a Fox in Socks parade through our school with our fox headbands and crazy socks. Research shows that children who can understand about rhyming words have a head start in learning to read and, even more, to spell.  We think RHYMING ROCKS!

Carver Celebrates Constitution Day!

We celebrated Constitution Day today at Carver!  All children met at the flag pole to sing and celebrate our great country.  We love the USA!

Lots of Learning Going On!

Hard at work searching for our sight words    I   and     am !   We used our "spy skills" along with detective glasses and "secret mission" music to help us!

This week we have focused on FRIENDS as we have learned about the "Golden Rule."  We have discovered that you should treat people how you want to be treated!  We have also worked on using BRAVE TALK when someone is not being friendly to us.  Our song, TWINKLE FRIENDS, is a fun song to sing with friends!

Lots of Cool Families Visited Open House at Carver!

The children were very excited to bring their families to Open House tonight at Carver!  The children were tour guides and took their family to their classroom and other favorite places at school.  The Book Fair and Family Photo spot were popular places to visit also.  Check out some of  our cool families!

 

 

                                       Thanks for popping in!

Zero the Hero!

Today was our tenth day of school!  Zero the Hero came to visit.  He came to teach us that the number 0 saves a space so other numbers cant get in his place!  He also gave us a zero treat to eat!  We cant wait until the day he comes again! (Hint: he will come on the 20th day of school!)

Second Week a Success!

Our second week of school was a success.  We learned to read the color words red, blue, yellow and green as well as the words I, am!  We also learned during our ME unit that we are all individuals- different and special! We continued to work on classroom rules and expectations.  The children are quick to share our classroom secret: "If you listen, you learn!"   Shhhhh!
