A Little Bat

Batty is based off of Paul Galdone's book Three Little Kittens. It is one of our favorite star books! As Batty explores each friend's home, we wanted to share our wonderful story with you!


We were so inspired by Galdone that we wanted to create our own story. As a class we brainstormed ideas for animals, how many animals we should have, what that animal lost, what the mom said he couldn't have and even what they smelled at the end! Then we each took turns illustrating the pictures thinking about how Batty, his mom and the bug would feel throughout the story! 

It was a lot of fun creating and listening to writers respect other writers ideas and get excited about this awesome story they were creating together!

 Hope you enjoy!

Just a small note:
As spring activities start to wind up I would love to know about games, recitals or any activity friends are partaking in. One of my favorite things is to see them participate in something they love and talk about often in school. Please email me with dates/times and I will try my best to be there!

Have a wonderful weekend! Hopefully the rain will go AWAY!

Love,
Miss Brehm

Day TWO!

Day two is truly wonderful! We have so much fun together! Today we started working on our first classroom book and WOW it's going to be AMAZING! So many beautiful illustrators and creative thinkers in this class. Also today we completed our first of many Math and Writing rotations. It's been a busy busy busy day! Now to the fun stuff. It's always said that pictures speak much louder than words and I agree 100%. So here are the pictures from our magnificent day TWO! Right after lunch we went outside to explore our school garden with Nurse Amy! We picked marigold seeds which we are going to plant in our classroom! Check out all the fun we had!  It was a busy day indeed, but so much fun! I can't wait for tomorrow! Love, Miss Brehm

Sunshine Chair

This is our Sunshine Chair! It is a very special place in our classroom where friends can go to relax, regroup, think and feel safe. In our classroom anyone can go and sit in the sunshine chair any time they want. Friends also may be invited to sit in the sunshine chair. While sitting in the chair friends are able to watch Zogika and calm their minds. It is not just for students! I myself have used the chair once or twice when I am feeling frustrated, sad or if I just need some space. I do this to model the expectations for how to use the sunshine chair, to identify feelings and to help friends self regulate. Also so friends know that it is not a time out chair or take a break chair.  Feel free to stop by anytime and check out this amazing space in our classroom! Love, Miss Brehm

As a group we had SO much fun creating and painting our elephants! What an amazing experience it was to end our year together on! I hope you enjoy the pictures and are able to come and check out the wonderful elephants we created with MARY! Our morning started with Mary sharing what she does and different murals she has done throughout the US. Then we watched a quick video of her time in Chester, PA painting elephants!  Then we started to PAINT! Here is the evolution of our elephants!  To the finished product! One elephant will be hung in our classroom and the other will be hung somewhere in the school for everyone to enjoy!  A truly AMAZING day!  I wish you well! Love, Miss Brehm
