Tall (Many Unicorns can read this book! The text is simple: tall, small, fall, Bobo and mommy.)
10 Fat Turkeys (Thanks Lucas!)
I Can Lick 30 Tigers Today (Tabi and Nikki's book!)
Hug(The Unicorns read this book!!!!!! The text consists of the words Hug, Bobo and mommy.)
The Biggest House in the World (This is my new favorite book! It is written by Leo Lionni.)
In Pre-K we..........
- learned all about Lucas! Lucas was the Friend of the Week. Did you know his favorite present is an ice cream maker that he got from Hayden? His favorite cake is vanilla cake and vanilla frosting, "just regular cake". He shared one of his favorite books from home, 10 Fat Turkeys. He also shared his favorite snack, mac and cheese and corn muffins, double yum!!!!
- continued with our dinosaur theme, but we also have a sub-theme of "small and tall", "big and little" emerging.
- had a reading explosion, seriously!!!! The Unicorns are starting to read. They read Tall and Small and Hug by Jez Alborough. It is very exciting!
- have spinmania! The Unicorns have been decorating paper plates and cutting them into spirals. After tying yarn to the plates the Unicorns run with them and they have spinners!!!
- are putting dinosaur counters in plastic eggs and hiding them. Other Unicorns are finding them.
- went on our first subway trip!!!! We went to see Queen Marlene's birthday show. It was a very interactive show that was funny! The Unicorns seemed to like the real birthday cake that was served at the end. The Toy Museum would be a fun place to visit with your family!
- saw a second show at school the next day! We saw the story of Hiawatha. The Unicorns took away a lot more than I thought they would. It was an engaging puppet show. Ask your child what they learned or thought about Hiawatha.
- played "build a tower".
- each got our own Unicorn from Farah and Shay! Thank you Killens! That was very generous!!!
Tom, have a fun weekend with Corduroy!!!!!
Congratulations to Clara, she won our Staffle Raffle! Thank you for all your participation! (For a consolation prize Mrs. Hudson and I will take all the Unicorns to my house for a picnic lunch in May.)
