Monarch Butterfly

 
On Tuesday morning, Room 11 was filled with excitement.  We had a monarch butterfly waiting for us as we entered the classroom.  She was beautiful and allowed almost all of us to hold her before she flew away! 



 


 

 
 
 

 


What is your favorite color?

 
Room 11 has spent the past several weeks building a strong classroom community by getting to know one another. One of the activities we did was to make fortune tellers.

A Wonderful Surprise!

While walking with my family this morning we found five monarch caterpillars!  I was so excited!  My children helped me bring them to the classroom.  There is one very large one and I think he will be in a chrysalis by the time we all get to school tomorrow!  Can you find him in this picture?


Pattern Blocks on the Second Day of School





First Week of School

What a great first week!  This is an adorable group of students and I can tell we are going to have a wonderful year together!

Thank you all for returning the permission slips for the blog.  Students enjoy seeing their pictures on the computer.  This is my second year using a blog and I am hoping to add more.  I admit to getting caught up in learning with my students and forgetting to take pictures.  I want this to be a place where families can access information about their child's day and students can find interactive sites!

It was nice meeting families at Open House last week.  Please remember that you can contact me by email (thibaults@csdvt.org ) or by sending in a note with your child.

I hope you all had a long sun filled weekend!  I can't wait to see all my students tomorrow morning!
