Not Feeling at all like June Today!!

Our morning began with Opening Exercises and a House Game. Theta earned 5,000 points; Kappa - 3,000 points and Zeta - 1, 000 points for a relay race that turned out to be much more difficult than I thought it would be!

Our leader, Santino, led us through the calendar. We reviewed the names and values of the 3 coins we have learned so far and each group did a skill-sheet.

Our language time was spent making a "secret something!"

During the first part of the afternoon we started to learn a Watermelon Song that we will sing at our picnic tomorrow.

The day ended with French!

Singing a Farm Song with Mme.V. ~ That they love!

Enjoy the evening ...

the weather is due to improve!

CURRENT UNIT OF INQUIRY: More Than A Feeling!

Central Idea: We can express our feelings/emotions in many different ways.

Today the children were introduced to a program called Kelso's Choices. It is an excellent program about dealing with big and small problems. There is lots of info on the internet and I wish I had learned about it years ago! We watched some scenarios on the web and how Kelso helped the children solve their small problems.
