Hello parents and thank you for visiting our blog!
Wow……We had an amazing World History Day!! We hope everyone enjoyed the day. What an incredible and adventurous journey for all. We saw sea creatures, dinosaurs, volcanoes, cavemen, pyramids, and walked through the Renaissance era. The children got to taste different foods, explore the marvelous underwater life, learn all about the time of dinosaurs, and have fun with arts & crafts. The children truly enjoyed every part of their day. We appreciate the time our parents spent on helping to make this day joyful and full of learning. Thank you to all our FMS families for helping transform our room into the age of Dinosaurs. Our room was filled with wonderful activities and experiences, such as: exploring with volcanoes, seeing the actual sizes of a dinosaur’s footprint, digging for dinosaur bones, and trying to walk with dinosaur feet. It was incredible to watch the looks on the children’s faces once they entered each different time period.
A few of Ms. April’s Students from E4 visited our classroom and discussed about the Timeline of the World and displayed a timeline from invertebrates to mammals.
We are closing out October themes and starting with our new November themes. During the month we will be covering North America, Desert Studies, and Reptiles. We welcome any parents in our room throughout the month of November who would like to share some information regarding our study of North America. If you have any souvenirs, pictures, or even facts pertaining to North America, Canada, or Mexico; we would love to hear from you!
We would like to thank the students from Ms. Erics’a middle school class (E1) for visiting our room and sharing a song related to the different bones in the human body. We also enjoyed borrowing her skeleton (not Ms. Erica’s personally…..lol) and learning the names of the different bones.
Our Kindergarteners will be taking another field trip to Red Rock on Wednesday, November 20th. We will need some volunteers to join us on that day. We will be leaving FMS at 9:30am and returning to school by 2:00pm. Please look for a sign-up sheet posted outside our door soon if you would like to chaperone.
On Wednesday, October 30th we had a guest speaker. Dr. Montes, a radiologist, visited our room and discussed the different bones in our body. He shared ex-rays of various bones and shared stories that went with each ex-ray.
