Dear EES Families,
As usual, it has been a very busy week here in the EES classrooms! We have been working on a lot of different learning skills, as well as enjoying the beautiful sunny weather. Please continue to send in shorts, water and hats for students as we will continue to spend time outside when it is warm.
In Language Arts we have been learning about bees and how they make honey. The students have listened to songs and stories, sequenced letters and words, and have written sentences to talk about what bees look like, how they make honey, and what honey is. In Math, some of our students have been working on addition and subtraction, and recognizing if they need to add or take away depending on the mathematical symbol and vocabulary that they see in the question. Other students have been practicing recognizing, sorting and matching different 2D shapes, and noticing them in pictures and our environment.
We have been very lucky for the last two weeks to have double gym each day! We have had the opportunity to have gym time both in the morning and the afternoon, so that we could have fun in the gym in the morning and also get some fresh air and exercise outside after lunch.
Since we have been learning about bees and honey, we just had to use honey as an ingredient in our cooking this week. We made honey pancakes, which had honey mixed into the batter as well as drizzled on top - so yummy! The students had the opportunity to practice following a recipe, measuring ingredients and mixing them together.
We have been learning about different insects for several weeks, so our art has all been focused on these creatures. We have made lots of different art pieces, such as ladybugs and bees, and this week we made some very hungry ants. The students practiced cutting, gluing and placing their materials on a page to create some unique and beautiful pieces!
