Feb 1-4

In Music we will be learning the "Texas Our Texas" song. We will also learn the B-L-A-C-K song and make our own songbook to take home.
In Science we will begin to read and learn about the Rainforest Habitat. we will be making our own parrots and talking about the different animals that live in the rainforest. The children will also be painting their favorite animal in the rainforest in the easel.
Our letter of the week is "h". Some of the students will be tracing and writing lowercase "h" in D'Nealian. Other students will be working on matching pictures that end with "sw", "sp" and "sk". They will be learning about plural nouns and review the sound for long "i".
Please bring 3 items with texture by Wednesday if you have not already brought them to school. Someof the students have shared their items in circle and will be gluing them on the poster as a class on Thursday.
The children really enjoyed Dr. Flint's visits our class last week. She brought a Winter Wren's nest and speckled egg for us to examine, and she shared a wonderful story about finding the nest in her yard.
Special thanks to Nathan Flint for talking to the class about Sea Creatures and bringing a real octopus, crab, and shrimp for the children to touch.

No education seems to be worth the name which has not made children at home in the world of books, and so related them, mind to mind, with thinkers who have dealt with knowledge. — Charlotte Mason
