Week of 10/11 - 10/14

Hi Bumblebees,
Our class sure loves their pets. Those of you with real pets at home, we heard a lot about them! And we had fun with our stuffed animal pets too! Thanks to everyone who donated items for this week, we couldn't have had so much fun without you! Enjoy the pictures.

Reading Chester's journal about his fun weekend with Matthew!
It's all about the letter E this week!
Eggs start with E, even if they are green!
Haley showing us the great E items she brought in the class sound box!
Soaring like an eagle with Alphabet Al
Can't have pet week without playing with Littlest Pet Shops!
Can't have Orange Day without orange cheese balls!
This Old Man.....we sang the song, and fed our dogs 10 bones (in the correct order, of course!)
ORANGE DAY show-and-tell!
Orange hunt around our classroom!
Kate took our letter-of-the-week book home this week. Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss!
We got the special treat of watching how a pet groomer makes a dog pretty!
Shaving....
....and even getting bows in her fur!
Making our own doggies....
...aren't they cute?
Making REAL green eggs!
We had a handful of Bumblebees brave enough to try them!

And those who did try them, did like them! Just like in our story!
Working on our fall newspaper. We are getting so much better at following step-by-step instructions!
Congratulations to our star students this week...Lauren, Brianna, and Mackenzie! Keep up the good work!
Lots of fun stuff going home this weekend. Please check this picture and your child's backpack to see if they are responsible for anything. Have fun!
NEXT WEEK:
*The letter F (please send in a small F picture in the letter envelope on MONDAY)
*Fall (hopefully the weather will cooperate and really feel like fall!)
*WEDNESDAY--Pumpkin Day. Please send in a real medium-size pumpkin with your child. Not a tiny one or a huge one. Please send in one your child can easily carry by themselves.
*WEDNESDAY--We will be celebrating Lauren's birthday. Her parents will be providing pizza and juice for lunch. If your child will not eat pizza, or will still be hungry after a slice, please send in some extra food. Send morning snack as usual.
*THURSDAY--NO SCHOOL! See you at your scheduled conference time (reminders will go home on Monday).

Please practice with your child:
*All letters A through F
*spelling their first name out loud
*writing their first name

Class wish list:
*plastic spoons (we have plenty of knives and forks, but need lots of spoons)
