Blog 3: A big catch up!

Thank you, parents for your patience, flexibility and well wishes as I had a week at home recovering from my accident. I am healing well, feeling better and really missed being at school with my class!

For September 14-18 our class focused in on shapes and sorting as well as we looked at 2 and 3-dimensional circles, semi circles, stars, rectangles, triangles, and squares. I am really pleased with how quickly the children are building their vocabulary! This week we also began discussing basic body parts and emotions. For this, our special song of the week was, Head, shoulders, knees and toes, which most of the class already knew and really enjoyed dancing to. Our class also welcomed our new TA, Kru Gong!
Here are some highlights from the week!
