Week in Review (11/28-12/2)
Curriculum Night
Thank you to all of the families that came to Curriculum Night! It was wonderful to see students sharing their work with families. Most of this work is still posted throughout the classroom and on the board outside the room (above the drinking fountain). We invite you to take a look during drop-off or pick-up to see what your child has been up to.
Finding Out About Funnels
Students experimented with funnels with sand and water this week. They observed how the water traveled through the different funnels and used them to fill the cups. We talked about how full the cups were and compared different sizes and amounts. Children noticed it was easier to fill funnels with sand and that the water fell out of the funnels quicker. We talked about other similarities and differences as well.

Creating a Train
Students and Ms. Farhat continued their work with trains. Ms. Farhat brought large boxes the children could use as train cars. The children lined them up and thought about what train cars would look like. We heard them talking about different types of train cars such as the engine, caboose, or coal car. Students enjoyed the opportunity to sit in the cars and have a more hands-on experience with trains.
