Welcome to our world of discovery and learning!

Welcome to our daily blog! We use it to share daily updates on our classroom, reflections on our learning with children, and photographs. Extended family, friends, neighbors, educators, etc, are also encouraged to follow the blog!
One of the wonderful aspects of blogging is that it allows real-time interaction between home and school. Is your child talking about what we are doing in school? Leave us a comment and let us know! Are you interested (or even an expert!) in something we are studying? Leave us a comment and let us know! Are you planning an outing with your child to extend the classroom learning? Leave us a comment and invite other families along!
We also have a section call, "Learn More About..." When we write each post, we tag it with relevant topics. And so if you wanted to see what we have been doing with, for instance, science, you would click on that tag, and see all the posts about science.

ABC Letter Game

This morning, the Owls enjoyed playing a wonderful game brought in by Mimi called the ABC Letter Game, made by a company called Super Why Kids. This game specifically targets preschool-aged children, but proved quite difficult for many! Of course, difficult is certainly not bad, because we all know that there is much learning that happens within the struggle. The game challenged every player while respecting where they are in their progress, and friends were so proud when they completed and won.
The game focused on many important literacy elements, such as letter-sound recognition, upper and lower case letter recognition, and rhyming.
 We also worked on more Rorschach prints, prepping for our entry with the springtime Art Day (hint! hint!).
"Wow!!!"

So ready for snow!
