Happy Friday Families!
We have had a fun week learning about nocturnal animals. We even made fun relief paintings of some of our favorite nocturnal animals for our Fun Friday activity today. In math we have been working on counting one more and one less. This is a great skill to practice. Give your child any object to count and then identify one more and one less. You can also do this by writing numbers or counting on fingers. Disguise a Gingerbread! We will be doing our Gingerbread unit next week! Please be sure that your student has sent in their disguised Gingerbread by Monday to share with the class and post in the hallway. I would love to wrap up the unit by tasting a gingerbread cookie.
