This week at school.

Hi all! Kenzie here. I haven't posted on here lately being so busy at school. Here is the newsletter for this week:

Animals Everywhere

Dear Family,
This week Kenzie will learn about pets. Using the topic "I love animals" we will read stories about pets and the experiences the pet owners have had with them. You can help your child learn more by talking with him/her about the things he/she is doing at school and the new letters and words that he/she is learning. Here are some ways that you can work with your child at home.

Think and talk:
What did you read today?
What was the story about?
What did you make today?
Do you think ____ would be a good pet for us? Why?

Home activities:
Ff Animal Poster
Draw a picture of a fish on a large piece of drawing paper. Tell your child that the word FISH begins with the letter f. Children can decorate the posted by adding pictures of animals whose names begin with f, such as frog or fox.

Books about pets
Your child will listen to the story "The Greedy Cat" Ask her/him to talk about how he/she feels about the cat that always wanted more. Read other books about pets with your child. Discuss what the pets in the stories are like.

What I learned:
Here is a note from your child and his/her teacher.
Talk with your student about items around the house that start with the letter Ff.

We learned a new song this week also. It is:
Fifi Fish
(tune: "Five Fat Turkeys")

SEE FIFI FISH'S FINS.
SHE CATCHES LETTER F AND WINS.
SHE HAS NO FUR OR FEATHERS ON HER.
SHE WINS AND FLIPS HER FINS.

MEMORY FULL....

So,after not falling asleep until well after 2am this morning, I got up at 8, and got the kids ready, packed the van and we were off to Mom's for Maddie's party.... So, I made sure I didn't forget my camera. That was a major thing... so, we get there and the castle jump was already there. The girls went and got in it right away, I started taking pics. After just 5 pictures, a screen says, Memory Full. I had forgotten my memory card. And since I had to go to walmart for mom anyway, I got a disposable camera to do the party with. So, no pics til I get them developed and then I have to scan them to the desktop so I can then download them here... Long process but you will like the pics (i think). Anyway, I am off. TTYL! Dawn

Workout #27

So, here's the challenge. And above, you can see my entry. Kenzie had done crosswords or circle a words (I can't remember) with Gigi and I snapped a pic of her doing it. I absolutely love the design of the sketch we were supposed to use for this lo. It allows for a simple, yet stunning layout. It allows room for journaling as you can see that I added as well as plenty of negative space! And the breakdown goes like this, picture was taken from my collection, background paper was from k and company the best of k and company pad, the circles were literally just picked out of my scrap box. I didn't even look at the papers, i just did a random pick. the lettering was taken from an old sheet of alphas i had and I think they worked out great!!! Simple yet Stunning! Thank you Scrap Fit for the challenge.
