Exciting Classroom News

Our kindergarten classroom is a busy and exciting place!  

On Friday, our 4th Grade Buddies from Mrs. Melaney's class came for a visit.  We did an experiment with various solutions and marshmallow peeps.  We were looking to see which solution would dissolve the marshmallow peep best.  We learned that hot water dissolves better than soda, vinegar, lime juice, and cold water.  

Today our incubator arrived!  After Spring Break, we will put a dozen chicken eggs in the incubator.  After 21 days, hopefully, we will have cute little fluffy chicks!  

We will be going on a field trip to Anderson Farm on Wednesday, April 27. The cost is $6.00.  I will send the permission slip home soon.  Please return the signed permission slip and $6.00 CASH (I can not accept checks).  

The tradition in my classroom is to decorate t-shirts for field day (which will be in May).  I order the shirts and supply the puffy paint we will use to decorate them during class time.  I ask that parents pay $5.00 each to cover the cost of the shirt and paint.  Watch for more information after Spring Break. 

Today we read The Easter Ribbit by Bernice Chardiet.  It is a fun story about a frog who has always dreamed of being the Easter Rabbit.  After reading the story, we did a Double Bubble Map comparing the Easter Ribbit and the Easter Rabbit.
