Week 8

I can not believe we are already at week 8! This year is going by fast.

This week we will be playing our tin whistle for Fine Arts again. I hope everyone has been practicing holding the whistle and covering the holes, as well as how to blow softly to make a pleasing sound. If you have any questions about this please ask.

Our presention for this week will be to make or do something in front of the class. Each student will be given 5 minutes to present. The following students will go this week:
Lillian
Blaze
Kaley
Annika
Madeleine (if enough time)

Week 9 is the same presentation with:
Sam
Makenzie
Presley
Cydney

Please practice this with your child, we hope to have each child in front of the class for as close to the 5 min as possible. Each child has been getting better and better each week!

We will also be taking our class picture again this week. Please be at CC as early as possible, I will start taking all pictures at 8:45, with the class pictures probably last.

Again, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Thanks,
Simone :)

Week 7

Sorry, I know this is late.   :(

Tomorrow, we will be starting on our "My Body," for science experiment time. There are some colors that are needed and it would be great if you could bring them in for class for the next 6 weeks.
They are:
silver
gold
blue
red
brick red
mango tango
yellow
purple
yellow green
timberwolf
red
orange
atomic tangerine
burnt orange
mahogany
pink
periwinkle or sky blue
Also, we are starting tomorrow with our tin whistles, we will be using them the next six weeks. Please make sure to bring them with you so that your child has them for each class. They are responsible for practicing during the week, so we can't store them at the church. This would be a great time for maybe giving your child some responsibility in having them remember to bring it to class.

The presentation this week is to share a funny story, your child may bring a book or props to go along with theirs. I do have the full presentation list on the left side of this blog as well if you are needing to know for an upcoming week.

I will also be taking pictures of anyone who has not had their picture taken since week 1. Next week we will be taking our class picture. Please come a few minutes early if possible to get this done.  I will also start collecting forms and money for anyone who wishes to purchase class pictures or individual package pictures. The form can be found at the following blog, http://reflectionsphotographynola.blogspot.com/, it is located on the right hand side of the screen.

If you have any questions, please email me @ psychmajor1@yahoo.com.

Thank you!
Simone :)
