New Morning Tubs

We added many new fine motor tubs, called Morning Tubs, this week. We use them after we fill out our notes, and throughout the day for quick little fine motor breaks. The tubs are filled with interesting tasks that help us get ready for pencil/paper tasks - and they are a lot of fun! 




We have continued to learn about animals in the ocean, including crabs and sea turtles. We read a book called Swimmy about a small, black fish who convinces the other little red fish to work together so they won't be eaten by a much bigger fish. We created our own Swimmy too. 
We had a Loon Lake Leader of the Month assembly - our trait this month was "respect". Here is our new Leader of the Month. 
Next Tuesday, we are having a special day in our classroom... it will be Pirate Day here! Everything your child will need to become a pirate will be here in Room 113! We will be sure to take lot's of photos of our fun!!!
I plan to send home a paper copy of your child's report card next Wednesday - please look for it in your child's folder that day. 
It is hard to believe that we are almost at the end of the school year! We plan to keep on learning right until the last day of school - every day counts and your children and their progress are important to us! It has been such a wonderful year of growth and progress (with many smiles, hugs and special activities) - each child has brought joy to our classroom, and I will miss them all this summer!
