We had a fun-filled drama day with Mr. Aaron, in the Social Club this week. The kids talked about the story of The Three Little Pigs. They each were assigned a role and acted out different parts of the story. We ended the day by playing a fun group game in the fitness room.
Participants of the Buddy Program enjoyed doing Buddy Tracings with their friends from Green Acres. Inside of the tracing, each child wrote something that they liked about their buddy and the Buddy Program. We played a group game and enjoyed oatmeal cookies. What a treat!
We had a fiesta in Beyond Cooking on Thursday! The kids had a blast preparing Cheese and Spinach Quesadillas, Pita Chip Nachos, and fresh salsa. We incorporated math into our cooking lesson by cutting our quesadillas into halves and fourths. Everyone agreed that the recipes were easy to make a very delicious!
The 2nd Annual Diener School Science Fair was a huge success! The children had a great time learning about and executing all of their projects. Parents (new and old), friends, and other visitors were amazed by all of the hardwork put in by our kids! Everyone did an amazing job!
Today the Primary class and the two Inters classes sang at the Hebrew Home! Everyone did an awesome job. The Primary class sang songs like "Old McDonald," "Open Shut Them," and "Five Green and Speckled Frogs." The Inters classes sang songs like "I've Been Working on the Railroad," "Take Me Out to the Ballgame," and "If You're Happy and You Know It." The kids all did an awesome job and the people at the Hebrew Home were very happy to hear their beautiful voices! In Miss Kate's Uppers class this week, we had fun continuing our study of rhythm by playing lots of rhythm games like Musical Instrument Chairs, Lightning Sticks, and I Like to Move It. We can't wait to continue having more fun in music after spring break! :)
Primary and inters students were excited to celebrate Spring this week! They created beautiful craft projects requiring them to trace their hands, cut, and glue or tape. Check out their BRIGHT projects outside of Ms. Jenni's classroom!
In Fitness we worked on balancing and continuing strengthening the lower body as well as the upper. Today we had the hebrew home And sang and danced away. All the kids that went danced to the cupid shuffle.
This week our students participated in a fun spring craft project. We created colorful flowers out of handprints. It required us to trace our hands, cut them out, and glue them to a paper plate. We are working hard on improving our visual motor and fine motor skills.
This week during Speech & Language, Ms Kate’s Uppers practiced making predictions and offering solutions to a variety of scenarios. We read Pig Pig and the Magic Photo Album, took turns trying to figure out what would happen based on our previous knowledge, the cover, and the title, and enjoyed when the true story was revealed! We even drew pictures and told stories to one another about what pictures we wish were in our photo albums that could transport us. Ms. Barbara’s Uppers put their irregular past tense verb and other grammatical form knowledge into use by creating Club Penguin Mad Libs. Our favorite part was when we read our silly stories to the rest of the class! The Inters enjoyed playing an exciting game of Headbanz, which allowed us to practice using our categorization and attribute generating skills.
Have a wonderful Spring Break! Enjoy playing the social skills and language games that were provided to Jillian (Pass the Eyes, One Word Story, & Category Horse)!
In art, the Iners learned how to create many shapes from starting out with one small shape. The children drew their shape on the paper, then followed the shape to make a line around it. They continued to draw many lines around their shapes and some even created more shapes! The children later colored in their shapes with crayons.
HAVE A GREAT SPRING BREAK!!
