A, E, I, O, U. This week we have been working very hard on our vowel sounds. We also learned about how every word has to have a vowel in it. The children have been editing their journals to make sure every word has a vowel in it. Its a little confusing but we are working on it :) We read:

This week the blue pod worked very hard and prepared a special Mexican meal for the rest of the school. We made menus and sombreros to wear just like in a real Mexican restaurant. The children worked with the lunchroom staff to serve lunch to the rest of the school. The children LOVED it!
We worked very hard on differentiating between the vowel sounds. We played many different smartboard games to help us practice hearing the different sounds. Theme This week we finished up answering our research questions about blue morpho butterflies. We have learned so much from each other about butterflies. We even watched a video of a caterpillar building its chrysalis. It was pretty cool. We have begun working on illustrating our research book to share with others in our pod. We, also, spent Friday signing up to build certain stages of the butterflys life cycle. We will start constructing it next week. The children are very excited!!!
