Hello!

What a wacky week it has been! A three day week with a field trip right in the middle of it all! We had a WONDERFUL time at the Charlotte's Web performance at the Hanover Theater yesterday. If you have not had a chance to visit the Theater add it to your list of things to do this year.
The children were outstanding listeners and audience members. Today we will watch parts of the movie and compare and contrast the play and the movie.

This week we have been focusing on the season of Lent. Each child has created a Lenten calendar to keep track of the 40 day season. We have also created a large Lenten calendar for our classroom. Our own footprints have been placed along the path from Ash Wednesday to Holy Week, and ending on Easter Sunday.

We have also started our next SUPERKIDS lesson booklet. We are now working with double vowel words such as seal, boat, and pie. To help the children recalling which vowel is heard we are remembering that most often, "When two vowels go walking, the first one does the talking and the second one zips its lips!"

Next week we will (hopefully) be back into the swing of things with a regular schedule...and 5 school days!!! :) Stay tuned for Mrs. Dufault's Peek at the Week on Monday!
