•  The Benefits of Sensory Exploration

  • Sensory activities prompt children to use scientific processes while they play.
  • It is proven that engaging a child's senses while presenting them with a learning task helps them to retain the information and fully comprehend it.
  • Sensory play is therapeutic on an emotional level and helps to calm and soothe children during difficult times or before bed.

Community Day

Community day is a day where the whole school comes together to learn, play, and even dance together.  The focus of this community day was to celebrate Black History Month.  We danced to great music from Louis Armstrong.  We colored pictures of great black Americans like Maya Angelou.  We even played a game of  red light, green light in honor of  Garrett Morgan who invented the traffic light.

Mardi Gras

We had a parade with Mrs. Clay to celebrate Mardi Gras! Oh when the Saints go marching through the hall of HCA.

Teeth

This week we continued to talk about how to care for our teeth. We talked about healthy foods as a treat for our teeth. We glued pictures of healthy food and not so healthy foods to happy and sad teeth. We learned how to cut up bananas as a healthy treat.  We learned how to clean and peel carrots as a healthy treat.  We also looked at different animals teeth.  We even painted with tooth brushes last Friday.

Random Act of Kindness
 

We were so lucky to have picked Mrs. Devenney's Class
as our special friends to show kindness too.

I read one of my favorite books, "The monster at the end of this book.”
We then had a little play-doh fun with Nursery 3.

  What a great time!

It is also a good way to show the children in Nursery 2

what is next for them when they go to Nursery 3.

We were then gifted an act of kindness from our fabulous 4th graders. 

They came down to our classroom to read books with our children.

They were paired up and off they went on their reading adventure! 

I was so impressed at how wonderful the 4th graders were with our Nursery 2s.

They are such good readers!!!  

Teeth

This week we continued to take care of our teeth.

We brushed our teeth everyday after snack to get off all the germs.

We got new teeth puzzles and we made teeth molds.

We even made elephant toothpaste after looking at different kinds of animal teeth. 

This week and next week we will be talking about healthy foods

for our teeth and maybe even taste a few!

 Auction Surprise!

Mrs. Mueller has been helping our class get our special auction item ready for you.  This week we pained it and it is now ready to be fired in the kiln.  I see a bidding war for this one of a kind item.  No more hints, you will just have to see the finished piece at the auction.

Letter of the week

We are doing so good with our letters.  Thank you moms and dads for getting their bags together each week.  It is one of their favorite things to do at the end of each day.  Our letter next week is "Rr."

 Music

Music with Mrs. Clay is always so much fun.  She gets our bodies moving and our voices singing.  

 Outside play

We were so excited to get outside several times this week. They need to run, jump, and play with their friends.  The fresh air did us all some good.

Looking ahead:
