Remembrance Day


Throughout the week, we have been talking about Remembrance Day, with a special focus on the importance of being peacekeepers.  Today, we explored the concept of war through a read-aloud of: Land of Many Colors, by the Klamath County YMCA Family Preschool, Klamath Falls, Oregon, illustrated by Rita Pocock. We also observed two minutes of silence at 11:00 am.




Our Recipe for Peace

2 cups of LOVE
1 cup of SHARING
1/2 cup of WORKING TOGETHER
1 tbsp. of CARING
1 tsp. of GIVING
1/2 tsp. of HELPING
1 pinch of LISTENING.

Mix together. Bake at 350 degrees and serve!






Space ... the Final Frontier!






Our students have been enthusiastic inter-galactic explorers!  They have
investigated the planets and dwarf planets in our solar system, as well as the milky way and other galaxies.  They have even created and named their own galaxies.

We are happy to welcome parents to Room 103 this coming week!  Please keep in mind that this is an opportunity to observe how your child is involved in the classroom community and engaged in inquiry-based learning activities.  Please note that observation time does not allow for parent-teacher interviews.  If you would like to discuss your child's progress, we encourage you to book an appointment outside of classroom hours.

Chime In


Poppy


Poppy we are but children small,
We are too little to do it all.
Children you may do your part.
Love each other is how you start.
Play without fighting.
Share your games and toys.
Be kind and thoughtful,
To all girls and boys.


Remembrance Day


We wear a poppy
On Remembrance Day,
And at eleven
We stand and pray.
Wreathes are put
Upon a grave
As we remember
Our soldiers brave.

On their toes,
No one knows

Elephants have wrinkles, wrinkles, wrinkles.
Elephants have wrinkles, wrinkles everywhere!
