Learning about our families

This week we focused on our families.  We listened to books about all different kinds of families, created graphs when questions were posed like: How many children are in your family? Who is the oldest child ?Who is the youngest child ?Does your family have a pet?

It was great seeing so many families at our Open School NIght.  Thank you all for taking the time to visit.  I hope the slide show gave you a pretty good picture of our first few weeks of school.

Next week we will celebrate the amazing apple crop that we have been enjoying.  If you would like to send in a few apples next Monday that would be great.  We will be sorting and classifying them, graphing them by different attributes and making something yummy to eat.
