News week 16, 15th – 19th of April 2013

Hi there! This week, we had no Alphabet Corner because on Monday the dental hygienist came to talk to the class about taking care of our teeth.

She talked about animals who have teeth and those who do not. She told us what teeth were for. Of course there was a long discussion about what kind of food one has to be careful to eat. But most important of all, she explained how to brush your teeth to keep them healthy. The children had a lot to say about teeth and even about wearing braces! They wrote about how many teeth they had dropped in their Newsbooks.



Some were not happy with the color of their brush..



On Tuesday, we worked the whole day in half class with one half of the group doing math books and the other half doing a clay painting project with Robson. That worked out quite well.

On Thursday, we also worked the whole day in half class with half of the group continuing to work with the Science project. This week, the discussion was around “what objects are solid objects?” This was a chance for those who had missed out on the science project to catch up on what we have been doing so far.

Today Friday, we worked on an art project: “What do you see through your window?” It was creative and inspiring.  We have also been doing some singing so the children might be humming a song they learnt for a while.

We want to encourage the whole class to register to participate in the minimarathon. This is a wonderful event which is very well organised which will take place on Saturday the 2^nd of June. Maybe you can register as a class? For instance team : Fe-Johannes skola?  and eventually think of meeting somewhere for a picnic afterwards? It is a very pleasant day (if it does not rain) Here in school, we will try to organise regular practice for the mini marathon . You can look at the official website for more info : www.minimaran.se

Have a great weekend!!
