Welcome back, we hope everyone had a great weekend!

Did you know that each letter in the alphabet has a name and a sound? On circle we worked with the alphabet flash cards and said the name and sound for each of the letters. The children were very eager to share the sound their name makes.

We had a great time in music class. Mr. Jason s brought in a djembe drum that he played for us and then let us all have a turn playing. Ollie the Elephant came to visit and showed us how he plays the djembe drum and asked us to sing him a song.

HAPPY MUSICAL MONDAY!!!!!!!!

Today was AWESOME with Mr. Jason in Music. He is our comedic Musician. We get our release on Mondays. After the trials of weekend life, Mr. Jason helps us to E A S E back into our wonderful school routines. Today we played the Djembe Drum. OOO la la, so much fun. This special drum has two sounds, LOUD and soft. We preferred the soft sound, BUT to appease Mr. Jason we played really loud so he would realize how much we appreciated learning about this new instrument. Mr. Jason also brought along a friend to help introduce the Djembe Drum. His name is Ollie the Elephant. I guess that’s why he sang the Alphabet like this; A B C D E F G H I J K elephantapee…..WHAT? Mr. Jason has the funniest friends. Thanks for sharing your Music and Comedy with us. Music teaches us about life in fun ways. We follow directions without realizing what we’re doing. “Hey wait a minute Mr. Jason you tricked us!

Happy Friday!

Happy Friday To All

On circle we reviewed the lessons that we presented this week comparing sizes.

The children worked on large, medium, and small and short and talk worksheets. The children compared and classified as well as worked on their fine motor skills as they cut and colored.
