Learning to read detail, big and small, is an engaging process. This last week we gave focus to capturing detail in sketching insects in journals and noticing the features of our class katydid and a beautiful design she showed us on the window of her terrarium. She was getting her drink of water from the condensation on the glass. Earlier in the semester children practiced noticing design in reading patterns in Lego Mosaic kits. Children also worked at enlarging designs of several insects with new art supplies. I hope you'll see the enjoyment the children experience in finding and using patterns in math, science, reading--below--and how we ended the week with a Pep Rally for Home Coming. Hard to believe, but your children are now part of an Alumni Association!
