STONE SOUP IS THURSDAY!!

Please send in your Stone Soup RSVP and your assigned canned veggies.  We also would like for everyone to send in a new PLAIN square pot holder.  Any color besides black will be fine.  We are also asking everyone to bring a dessert or bread item to share that evening.

HOMEWORK:  Please check your child’s backpack for this weekend’s parent child activity.  They each need to complete their “Family” page and return it to school on Monday or Tuesday.  Please let this be a child driven activity.  They can cut out pictures of people in their family, or they can draw pictures of people in their family.  THey will be laminated so please don’t decorate them with anything other than photos or drawings.

Literacy:

 This week we read Growing Vegetable Soup and Mean Soup.  We shared our favorite and not so favorite vegetables.

Silly Soup-  We created a bowl of Silly soup too.  Ask them what we put in it.  (dinosaur, dog, boots, cat, monster, elephant, etc)
Math:

Shapes and sorting:  We used our canned vegetables to put a twist on sorting.  We sorted by color and by vegetable.
