Love Is In the Air!

This week we have learned about hearts. We have learned that exercising our hearts keeps us healthy. We performed Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes and other gross motor songs for exercise. To reinforce what we have learned, perform an exercise with your child. Have him/her feel his/her heartbeat before and after exercising. Discuss the difference in the heartbeat rate.

We also made puffy hearts with shaving cream and glue, and played counting and matching games with paper hearts. Next week we will use heart shapes to spell our names. "Our Emotions " is our theme for next week. Also, don't forget about our Valentine's Day party next Tuesday! Please send in Valentines for your child's classmates for our Post Office lesson. Thanks! Have a great weekend!
