Hello Everyone!

Good morning and happy Monday everyone! It's a new week with new opportunities ahead! This week we are going to focus on the core words you/make/not and look at different ways we can incorporate them into our daily schedules. Before heading into a book reading with Ms. Kari, the Pine teaching team wanted to sing you just one of the many good morning songs we sing in our classroom! Follow along as we sing for each and every one of you. 



In the video below you can read along with Ms. Kari and the book "Not a Box." This was one of our very favorites when it was first introduced.  


There are SO many ways in which we can use a box, I wonder what all of you can do? Have a box at home? Give it a try! There are so many kinds of boxes: big, small, long, short, and the list goes on and on. Have a small box? I wonder if there is a way you can create something for your cars to go through? Have a really big box? Is there a way you can make it into some kind of vehicle or other form of transportation? 

The ideas are endless, and if I had to guess you all can come up with really creative ways to use any old box you have lying around. 

Have a great day!

Families

Today our conversation regarding our skin color continued, but evolved a little bit. Instead of just talking about our own skin, the kids started talking about their families.  "Well, I have brown skin and so does my mom and my brother. My dad has white skin!"  "My mom and I are white, and my dad and sister are really tan!" "My family all has brown skin like me. My mom is a little different brown though. My baby sisters look like me!" We got out the skin tone colored crayons and the kids carefully chose the colors they needed to represent their families.  "I need the tan ones because I am kind of tan and so is my mom. My dad and sister are darker than us so I need to use like a darker brown. I need the black too because they have dark hair. I have brown hair and my mom has like brownish hair but it's also kind of yellow." S worked on her family portrait as well. She, too, noted that she needed different colored cra...
