It's been awhile since our last newsletter and we have SO much to tell you! We have been non-stop learning and celebrating this past month. Our Valentine's celebration was super fun! We enjoyed reading each other's names on our cards and hand delivering them to our friends. We had an exciting party and enjoyed some delicious cookies and treats. We loved celebrating Dr. Seuss week. We read One Foot, Two Feet and painted our own feet (and sometimes our friend's) to make our art project. Check out these pictures! This week we have been focusing on music in the classroom. We learned the different rhythms that different notes make and how to use sound and clapping to show those rhythms. We learned one note is a "tah" and two notes connected are "ti-ti," and when you have a line of these notes we can read them out loud, "tah tah ti-ti tah" and make music. Even our babies are walking around chanting their tah's and ti-ti's now. We made music note collages, trumpets, guitars and even records (try explaining what THOSE are to this generation!) Next week we will be talking about art and famous artists. The children will be learning all about the classics and mimicking painting styles of famous artists such as Pollock, Warhol, Monet and even Michelangelo. We can't wait!
