Did you know Madame Smail is celebrating her 40th year teaching French here at SJEEC?! Can you believe that? Several parents have told us in past years that THEY had madame when they were attending school here as a small child. She is a wonderful contribution to our school. The kids enjoy her so much!
We practiced writing our W today and we sounded out lots of W words. We also made a walrus craft that will go in the kiddos' portfolios.
We did a fun exercise at the table with colors. Mrs. E. brought in mini M&M's and the kids had to put the colored M&M's on a printout of a snowman ... he too, had colors on his buttons, hat, etc. Then she said we could eat the M&M's!!!!! Yeah!
We read a cute story about a bear who searches for the meaning of "I Love You With All My Heart". He gets his answer when his momma tells him she loves him with her mouth that kiss, kiss, kisses him; and with her eyes that sparkle when she sees him; and with her arms that squeeze him.
Finally, we had fun building indoor snowmen (and secretly identifying letters). The kids matched hats with a letter with the belly of a snowman that had the same letter on it. Then, they got to "decorate" or "build" the rest of the snowman with button eyes and chenille stem arms, etc.
You should be proud of your kiddos. They are so good at this "school routine" by now. Very good at listening and sitting still on the rug. We are so proud!
Have a super day off on Wednesday!
