Penguin Plunge
I loved participating in the Penguin Plunge for the second year in a row! I can't wait to do it again next year!
JFK had a school-wide celebration in honor of earning 100,000 stars! We got to see a show put on by Foodplay. We learned all about healthy food choices and activities to keep our bodies healthy. There are lots of great resources on the Foodplay website, including a video to teach you how to juggle!
Literacy
We read a wonderful book called Ish by Peter Reynolds. We are also currently reading Those Shoes by Maribeth Boelts. The class and I are really enjoying these books! As we read, we are working on making our voices match the emotion in the story. We also are starting to learn how to stop and jot while we read to help us keep track of events in the story.
We also have started to write stories about penguins. We even made some penguins to inspire us!
Math
Brain Break
We discovered a fun new song that makes us laugh until we cry. I hope you have as much fun with Shake Break as we do!
