Good Afternoon!




Today we began our day with our morning circle time and snacks.


After that we learned about Jellyfish and we found out some very interesting information:

- Jellyfish live in ocean all over the world.

- Jellyfish can be purple, pink, orange and other colors.

- Most jellyfish are shaped like open umbrella.

- Their bodies are smooth and squishy.

- Jellyfish do not have eyes, a brain, a heart or bones.

- A jellyfish spreads out its tentacles to search for food.

- Jellyfish eat shrimp, young crabs, lobsters and fish.

After reading a couple of books related to our subject, we talked about how salty water makes things float. To help students to understand we cracked 2 eggs, one in salty water (like the seawater) and the other one in regular tap water. The egg in the salty water floated and the one in regular water sank. We used our imagination and pretended the egg was a jellyfish, students could observe how jellyfish float in the ocean.

Students made a nice craft of a jellyfish.

In our language arts we are learning letter Kk, today students practiced our phonics song for letter K. And our animal friend is Kathy Kangaroo. Students completed a worksheet to practice formation of letter K.

After that we head out to the gym to have a Kangaroo race!

Everyone was in need of some physical activity by that point!

We came back to our classroom and had some time to play a math game, using animals counters.

After lunch and recess students participated in reading group and attended Music and French classes.

To finish off our day students wrote in their journals and played with playdough.

Have a great evening everyone!
