M is for Muffins

Last week we focused on the letter Mm.  We made muffins to help us remember that M says /m/.  We followed step by step directions and made lots of delicious mini muffins!

Community Helpers

This week we studied Community Helpers.  We learned many important facts about Firefighters, Police Officers, Postmen, Doctors, Bakers and many others.  We wrote facts about Firefighters in Writing this week.  They turned out really great!  We even got the paint out to paint a police car!  At the end of the week, each student dressed up as what they want to be when they grow up!
