Finger Paints and Stuff

I wasnt feeling so hot today. So I decided to take out the finger paints and let the kids have some fun. They really enjoyed mixing colors on their huge white paper. After their paintings dried, I hung them all over the room for the kids to enjoy. :)

Free Play Fun

I thought I would add some pictures during free play time. The children are allowed to play with anything in the classroom during the first 30 minutes of the day. Here are some pictures of my awesome class playing with their favorite stuff.

Parent Note 8/30/11

Well we made it through the first week of school. Yay! I am having so much fun learning new things about the children every day. Last week we went over some letters and a couple numbers. This week we will be learning letters Aa and Bb. Also we are starting our introduction of pre-primer site words; please review these with your child at home for better comprehension.

 Our site words for this week are: a, and.

Colors and shapes will be introduced and reviewed throughout the school year.

In religion we are learning about creation. We are combining this with science, and introducing different bugs and insects.

I will be sending home our class schedule next week. I am still trying to find one that works well for us.

If for any reason you need to speak with me during the day, you may call or text me to my cell phone 3612280505. If you prefer to call, please leave a message and I will return your call afterschool. It is easier for me to text you back during lesson transition times. I am with the children all day; they do not leave me for any reason during the day. So please be patient while I try to return your messages and calls.  My email address is stpaulprek@gmail.com .

We also have a classroom blog, where I will from time to time post pictures of what the kids are working on during the day. Sometimes life gets hectic and I forget to post, so most of the posts will be random. msjuarezclassroom.blogspot.com
