Team 1 News February 1 – 7, 2010

Hello to everyone!  Team 1 has been busy this week.  K-1 have been studying the planets and 1-2 will be discussing dust mites.  We all made Valentine mice.  Their bodies are made of hearts, they even have yarn tails with a heart at the ends!  We are very tired of the cold temperatures that are keeping us inside and are looking forward to warmer weather.  Recently we also learned about Groundhogs and wish that Punxatawny Phil didn’t bring us 6 more weeks of winter!  We all learned about Pecos Bill, John Henry and Casey the Engineer in Social Studies.  We’d like to let you know that on our Tuesday morning specials we have crafts and Spanish.  Many of us are trying new things in them.  We are looking forward to Valentine’s Day and would like to have a Valentine party in our classroom.  1-2 is spending this week on the Laura Numeroff book, If You Give a Moose a Muffin.  They are really enjoying it.  1-2 also recently finished a unit on electricity, how it makes it to our houses and how to be safe.  They learned a lot and hopefully will be extra safe because of their new knowledge.  Happy first week in February!
