- tomorrow is HAT day - PM class is attending-wear the funniest and craziest hat ......
- Wonderful Wednesday tomorrow!!
- we had our classroom pictures - everyone looked so cute!
- parents, it is not summer yet! Kids need to be dressed appropriately according to the weather outside -for example today, it was extremely cold outside, and some students did not have the appropriate clothes for us to take them outside for recess
- Science- I have mentioned in my previous agenda notes that we have started our new science unit on "gardening and plants" - today we talked about different parts of the plant. I used "human body" as an example, plants are similar to the human body. Plants need roots for food/veins, stem/body, leaves/hands, the flower/head-brain. The vocabulary that we focused on was stem, roots, leaves, flowers! Please look at the pictures below! I have used this visual representation that I had made for students to better understand the concept being presented or taught!
- Mahsallah, huge progress with our KG students - students are writing detailed stories!!!! WOW!! They are using the strategies that I have taught them in class and applying it to their story writing, spelling, and building sentences!! It is a great achievement!
- Keep reading on RAZ-kids!!
- Have a great evening !
