Family Project (DUE NOVEMBER 8th)


Hello Parents-
We are finishing our theme called “We’re a Family! In this theme we discussed families and their relationships.  I am sending this note to tell you about an exciting project I have planned for your family!  This family project will be due this Friday (November 8th).  

Here is the outline of the family project:
You will be creating a family tree.  You may use whatever you want to create the tree (paper, video, poster, pictures, etc.)
  • Your family tree must contain AT LEAST your immediate family, or members of your household.
  • Your family tree must contain AT LEAST the names of family members (you can also include pictures, or drawings)
  • Your child must be able to tell us about the people in the family tree (mom, dad, grandma, grandpa, great-grandma, etc.)


Please put your family members in an order that demonstrates each generation.  See below:

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me.

I can't wait to see the projects!

Room 2 Happenings for October

So much has happened in the last couple of months that I haven't had a chance to update our little blog. We have learned so many new things that I will bullet point all of the awesome stuff we have done in the month of October.

  • We have learned so many letter names and sounds!
  • We have learned many ways to make numbers 1-10
  • We had a successful fundraiser dinner!
  • Ms. Vasquez was our awesome student teacher!  We learned so much from her and we are sad that she is done learning with our class.
  • We learned about cultural events (Dia De Los Muertos, Halloween)
  • The firemen came and taught us about their truck, the equipment they use and how to "Stop, Drop and Roll."


Learning and working together!

Fire Safety- We had the firemen come and visit and we learned about Stop, Drop and Roll
Ms. Vasquez was our awesome Student Teacher!

Even though October is over, our learning is still going strong!  We have a lot of things to learn and do in the upcoming months!

Love,
Mrs. Hinchen
