I hope everyone is enjoying the snow! I think it looks beautiful! 

This week we start a new unit in our Big Day Curriculum called Imagine it, Make it. Our first topic is Using my Imagination. We will read Not a Box, The Shape of Things, 10 Black Dots, and Feast for 10. Our vocabulary words are: create, imagination, and pretend. 

Our letter for this week is Oo. We will read “Oh Oh Octopus” and sing an O song. We will also make an O is for Octopus craft.

This week begins Black History Month and I have lots of lessons and activities planned for the month. We will start this week by learning about different inventions including the modern traffic light created by Garret Morgan. We will also learn about Oprah Winfrey, and Rosa Parks. We will also talk about Mae Jemison blasting off into space!

For Jesus time this week we will learn about Jesus being baptized. We may even have a visit from our friend Jelly!

This Wednesday is Groundhog Day… will the Groundhog see his shadow? I certainly hope not! We will do some groundhog activities and lessons on that day.

For math we will be learning #15 this week and reviewing 10 frames with worksheets and center games.

A busy week ahead! Have a blessed one everyone!
