February is Dental Health Month and on Monday we will have a visit from the dentist who will teach us all about healthy and unhealthy foods for our teeth, and the proper way to care for them.
In celebration of Valentine’s Day, we took a walk to the mailbox on Friday and mailed out some very special Valentines. This week we will make candy houses and have a small Valentine’s celebration in our class.
Wednesday is also the beginning of the season of Lent. We will have a special lesson in the chapel with Mrs. Krass and learn about Ash Wednesday, and what the season of Lent means for us. We will begin to learn some new songs during Jesus time to prepare for the celebration of Easter. We will also begin to learn the Lord’s Prayer.
In preparation of President’s week we will learn about George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, through stories, videos, and a special Weekly Reader. We will also be using Lincoln Logs during center time to build log houses just like President Lincoln grew up in.
We continue to work on letter and number recognition daily, as well as letter sounds with our letter of the week.
This will be our last week of riding tricycles in the gym as we hope to have nicer weather when we return from February break and will finally be able to go outside and get some fresh air!
Have a blessed week!
