Tuesday

Going out in the mornings seems to be a big hit - the children are having a blast getting to see their friends and play for a few extra minutes. We will continue to go out each morning unless it is too cold out. 


This morning after calendar, weather, and attendance, we finished reading our poems from our book  A Little Bit Scary, by Gill Davies and Gill Guile. We continued to talk about real vs. make-believe. We started a group graph (one that we all work on together) to graph real things and make-believe things. We're mainly focusing on the pictures that go along with our poems, so our graph includes things like spiders, monsters, bath tubs, tooth brushes, beds, people, skeletons, etc. Ask your child what things we included on our graph.


Soon thereafter we headed off to two enrichment classes(Julie was not here today), Music and Spanish. We then headed out to recess where we heard the bell ring a bit early. Middle School has been working hard to weigh the trash output of Community School and encourage us to recycle more. A lot about their study can be found on www.350.org. We then celebrated today's trash-free lunch by eating with Ruth Ann's class. Thank you to everyone who made the extra effort to pack a trash-free lunch for their child! We'll continue to celebrate trash-free lunch all week, but encourage you to reduce the amount of trash we produce all year long.
