Dinosaur Roar

Our class theme this week is dinosaurs.  Along with learning interesting facts about dinos, we also began our letter of the week...letter Dd.  Each week will will have a new letter that is connected to our weekly theme.  Be sure to get some extra practice at home writing our letter of the week or searching for the letter in books, magazines, or even at the grocery store!  There is lots of learning everywhere if you just look for it.

This week we read the stories, Dinosaur Dudes, Dinosaur Roar, Ten Terrible Dinosaurs, Dancin Dinos at the Beach, and Dinosaur Pet.  We quickly learned a dinosaur would be too big to have as a pet!  Our learning centers included finger painting a dino, patterning for the PM class, writing letter Dd, and a dino number card game.

Check out Dinosaur Train on PBS and visit the website/games here.  We played it in computer class and have the app on our iPad.   




Addison and Maverick are the Preschool Stars this week!







Happy Birthday to Maverick!
