Today we were very busy. Our morning started off with a morning message in spanish (for the first time). We also played a game called Agua de Limones. It helped us think about counting andf making groups of two, three, and four. We enjoyed a story called The Kissing Hand. Maybe your child can show you how the character in the story gave his mother a kissing hand. We even made our own kissing hand with a sponge and some paint. We also colored in a color wheel and learned that all of our wheels looked different because we are all different. The most exciting part of the day was when we gave our pet mouse (a web kinz) a name. As a class we voted on our little friend's mane. We choose Snowball.
Estuvimos muy ocupado hoy. Durante la manana, empezamos con un mensaje en espanol (por la primera vez). Jugamos un juego llamada "Agua de Limones", y practicamos contar y hicimos grupos de dos, tres, y cuatro. Nos gustamos una cuenta llamada "La Mano Besando". Quizas su hijo/hija podria mostrarle como el caracter en la cuenta se da un mano con un beso. Hicimos nuestras propios manos besando con pintura y esponja. Tambien colorean una rueda de colores y aprendimos que todos de nuestros ruedas miran diferentes, porque todos somos diferentes. La hora mas emocionada fue cuando dieron nuestra mascota de la clase, un ratoncito, un nombre. Como un clase, elegieron "Bola de Nieve" para nuestra amiga pequena.

Marissa and Marcella love to come home and show off their new spanish language. But today Marissa came home and sung us a song in spanish. I asked her what it was about and she said "Its a morning song and I will figure it out someday!" She sounded great anyway.
Thank you Mrs Helfer and Ms Wesley you are doing a GREAT JOB!!!
We especially love the blog!!
Elliana S. is also enjoying her experience in the class. I personally love the blog and daily posts about classroom activities. I think it's sometimes hard for kids to remember when parents ask "what did you do at school today?" The posts help us to be informed about class activities before we ask our child what they did. Thanks!
