After a long vacation the purple room is back.
This week in the purple room we reviewed everything we learned about our human body, the respiratory system, digestive system, and our hands and feet. We are very excited to visit the AZ science center next week as a culmination of this theme. Reminder to wear your CJP tshirt and bring a sack lunch on Wednesday. Please install your car seats into Shternie's van at drop off on Wednesday morning.
Our friends are so good at recognizing their uppercase letters and writing them, so starting this week we began learning what our lowercase letters look like and we tried to write them. We used rocks, stones, chalk, crayons, and shaving cream to write or make the lowercase letters
In our science center this week our friends learned what a scale is and how it works, we tried to weigh different materials in our hands and then put them on the scale to see if our guesses were correct. We weighed bolts, shapes, magnets, and even small dishes. Our friend also tried to even out the scale by counting how many bolts we need to add so they will weigh the same as the squares.
Our friends tried sewing buttons onto fabric. This was perfect for their fine motor skills, they tried to put the string through the needle, then hold the button in place and put the needle through.
Share this week was all about the letter G.
Vella brought in a big grapefruit that she shared with the whole class. We even tried to use it as a ball, because it was round.
Shimmy brought a giraffe that he borrowed from his baby Daniel. It was squishy.
Nechama brought in a small giraffe, her giraffes tail was attached to its body.
Ben brought in his Gee, his karate suite, it was blue and had a white belt.
Nosson brought in his green helicopter, it had a lot of spinners.
Thank you for a great week!
