It's Thursday!

Hello everyone,

Today we did more exercises that dealt with tracing our names.  We all continued to do very well on it.  With all this practice, we will soon be able to write it without tracing!

We also made stick puppets that are based on the book, "The Ugly Duckling."  We coloured them, cut them out, and put some glitter on these puppets as a finishing touch.  After, we played with them a bit and did a little reenactment of the story!

We also read a book and compared it to the "Ugly Duckling."  This book was so similar that the name was even similar.  This book was called the "Very Ugly Bug."  It was a very funny book and was about a bug who, thinking it was too ugly, did not like her looks.  However, after some time, she learned to love herself for who she is, just like the ugly duckling.  We talked about both of these stories and the morals behind them and found many similarities between both books.  At the end, we decided that we should love ourselves just the way we are because we are all beautiful and unique in our own ways.

We also traced and wrote the letter of the week, Ll.  We did very well with this activity!!

Because Mr. Moreno was sick, we did not have music today.  We did, however, listen to Christmas music (a little early) and Transiberian Orchestra.  It was great!!

Have a great night!!!!
