Our first unit of inquiry is entitled "A Healthy and Strong Body is My Responsibility". We have started off the unit by investigating the body. The children are quite excited learning about the different organs and their functions. Did you know that there are 600 muscles in our body? We have a model of the body in our class and the children have enjoyed taken it apart to discover the kidneys, heart, lungs, intestines, and stomach! Unfortunately, they couldn't take the esophagus out and some were quite dissapointed in this! We will now begin discovering which foods are healthy and the benefits of exercise. This week the children will do a survey of foods eaten at the dinner table at night. Our goal is to write a healthy menu for your family. If you have any old magazines with pictures of food and exercise would you please donate them to our class? Thank you!
In Language Arts, we have been reviewing short vowels, consonants and word families. We have been getting back into the swing of reading and writing creative stories as well!
In Math this week we have been reviewing numbers to 20, story problems, writing numbers in words, jumping forwards and backwards on a number line and the number chart to 100.
