Oceans

This week and next week our theme is oceans. So far we have made fish from the story "Rainbow Fish", crabs, starfish, and jellyfish. Next week we will me making scuba divers and hermit crabs! We also had our last focus on letters with the letter Bb and our last focused review of numbers 1-10 with the number 10. We will continue to work on naming letters in random order-especially those in the student's names and practice with number sets, counting, and sequencing. 

You may have started hearing about plastic bags being collected. The Medford co-op/County Market is doing another plastic bag recycling challenge. Last year our school was able to collect 21,605 bags!! The winning class had 1,951. This year there are already a few classrooms that have several hundred bags brought in! If you would like to help out with this, please send the bags in with your student-they do not need to be pre-counted!!
