May 26- 29 & June 1-5

It's hard to believe it is already June! Although the weather outside sure doesn't feel it! We have been busy in our Friendly Fish classroom!


We have been hard at work practicing our sitting and working at the tables. It is hard to do sometimes but we keep getting better at it! We have done a lot of work in our small groups, as I am sure you have seen most of the work that has come home! We have done various activities using different art supplies!

We are practicing holding markers and crayons in our hands the correct way. We have also used the bingo dots to make beautiful artwork as well as hold the correct way. We have used the circle stickers to practice our fine motor skills of pulling the stickers off and placing them on our papers. They can be tricking!

Play-dough was a big hit last week! All the kids loved rolling it into balls and making different things with the play-dough. We also painted a number of times. We used water colors, and we also painted with celery and potatoes! That was fun to do.

We listened and watched  Pete the Cat and his Four Groovy Buttons on the iPad. It is a big hit in our Friendly Fish room! We also watched The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle.  I have included links to both stories online so you can enjoy at home!

Enjoy your weekend! Hard to believe there is only two more weeks of school left! As a reminder, our last day of school will be June 19!
