Weeks 28- 29

What a busy few weeks we have shared here in Mrs. P.'s class! We've learned about a new country and sport, started a new unit in health class and added to our ever-growing list of sight words! Needless to say, Mrs. P.'s class has been incredibly productive!

It's the month of April, which means Mrs. P.'s class has been learning about our new country, Egypt and track and field sports: activities which we have also conveniently been working on in gym class! Students have been practicing long and short jumps, shot putting and throwing, and even got to do their own relay and hurdle races in the hall with Mrs. P.!





In health class, students started a very important unity on smoking, drugs and alcohol. This week, we learned about the dangers of smoking, and how it is bad for our bodies and harmful to our environment. This was a very important lesson for our students, whom we encourage to make healthy choices for their bodies and minds every single day. And speaking of healthy choices, what a change in snack choices we have seen here in Mrs. P.'s classroom! Lots of fruit, yogurt and granola... keep up the great choices kids!

Mrs. P.'s class would like to thank Mike the Magician for visiting us at school last Friday. We had a great time watching your tricks and can't wait to see you again next year!

Next week is a very busy week for Mrs. P.'s class. We will be going to Pizza Hut on Thursday for lunch (as we missed it this week with our strange snow day!), and to the Strong Museum of Play for the Wizard of Oz exhibit. Please let Mrs. P. know if you have any questions regarding these upcoming events!
