All of our butterflies were out of the
chrysalises on Monday, and we were very excited to be able to
watch them. If you would like to find out more
information about the Painted Lady butterfly, please click on the
butterfly. Ask your child what color the wings of this butterfly
look like when they are closed.
Time
to say goodbye to our butterflies!


VIP of the Week!

We learned lots of interesting things
about Mr. A this week. We found out that he has one sister and two
brothers. He likes to shop at Toys R Us, he likes to play video
games, his favorite season is winter and he likes Valentine's Day!
We enjoyed seeing all of his pictures of him and his family. We look
forward to hearing and seeing lots more of his favorite things this week.

Mr. A and some of his buddies!
Miss G shared her little bird that she helped to rescue. She is
feeding him special "baby" food! She thinks he is about a week old.

If anyone would like to celebrate a summer birthday before
school is out, please let Mrs. Critchell know!
Miss J and Mr. A celebrated both "Unbirthdays" with
us! We thank both of them for the yummy cupcakes!
We loved playing Mr. A's pinata game and finding out WHO had the magic
string to open the pinata. Who was the lucky student???
We are authors!

Doing the Tooty-Ta!

We made beautiful flowers to show that
we are "BLOOMING!"

Our life cycle wheels were made using
pasta to show the stages of a butterfly's life.
We put all of our hands together to make
a big flower to show all the parts of a plant.

We
made creepy, crawly caterpillars, too!

Mr. D celebrated his 6th birthday with
us. Thanks so much for the delicious cupcakes and new crayons for
our classroom!
April Award Winners

We had so much fun playing a new math
game to help us with the numbers from 1-100. We used dice to play
the game. Ask your child to explain how we played, and who was the
winner! Did the students win, or did Mrs. Critchell??
 

The children were very
anxious and excited for the Mother's Day Tea. Everyone was very proud of
their efforts and especially Mrs. Critchell! They did a wonderful job.
There were so many terrific pictures that it was difficult to decide which
pictures to post this week. You will be getting a CD of all of the photos
with your child. Thank you so much for coming to the tea and helping to
make it a very special day for all of us!
Cooperation

We finished our very last block

Mrs. Slegers and I would like to thank
