Lunar New Year 

 

We recognized the Lunar New Year by drawing an Ox.  Participating in step-by-step drawings is a great opportunity to practice patience, following directions, and work on fine motor skills.   

 

Art 

 

The students made heart-shaped  Sun Catchers for Valentine's Day.  They were excited to bring them home to show you.   

 

Senses 

 

Valentine's Day was a great opportunity to connect the 5 Senses.  After discussing ideas as a class of when we see, hear, taste, smell, and feel love - students created their own Valentine senses sentence in their journal.  Ask your child what they wrote about.
