Signs Keep Me Safe

Signs all around our community help to keep us safe.  Stop signs, traffic lights, cross walks, and tons of others protect us as pedestrians and when we travel in cars.

After learning about all different kinds of signs we went on a sign hunt around our school!

Elida and Thomas found a School Speed Zone sign.

Mason and Elise found a No Left Turn sign at the exit of our parking lot.

Caleb and Samantha found a No Parking sign across the street from our school building.

Lucy and Anna found  a Do Not Enter sign at the exit of our parking lot.

Mira and Nicholas found a Stop Sign.

Abbie and Preston found a No Stopping, Standing, or Parking sign.

Lawson and Etchieson found an Adopt-A-Street sign.

Luke, Annie, and Lilly found a Cross Walk sign.

Signs everywhere to help keep us safe!


One afternoon after learning about the rectangle, our shape of the week, we were given 5 shapes and asked to see if we could figure out what type of sign they could make.

We thought really hard about the shapes we had seen.

 And figured out that the shapes made a Stop Light!

Look at these awesome traffic lights!

And look at these sweet, silly kiddos!

Our letter of the week was B! 

For our alphabet journals we mad Bumble Bees!


We also did the Blue Butter Boogy and MADE our own butter!
A little bit of heavy whipping cream, salt, and blue food coloring paired with lots of shaking made yummy butter.


After 1 minute of shaking we had whipped cream.

After 2 minutes of shaking we had a gritty, almost butter cream frosting like paste.

After 3 minutes the butter was really starting to take shape and we had a cottage cheese like consistency.

After 5 minutes the butter was smooth and ready to eat!

We spread the butter on ritz crackers and enjoyed all of our hard work!  Yum!

This week PreK B and PreK A planted our raised plot in the Holy Souls garden!  
Mr. Baker owns a lawn and landscaping company so he came out and gave us a lesson on how to prep, plant, and care for a garden.  

Mr. Baker was so nice to pull all of the weeds and rake all of the soil to make it ready to plant.

We even found grub worms and we learned that those are not good for a garden because they eat the roots of plants.

When the bed was ready we each took a turn planting a broccoli plant while PreK A friends planted cauliflower.











We will water and weed our garden and watch it grown over the next few months!

Thank you Mr. Baker!


Our Hoot of the Week this week was Anna!
Anna shared awesome Animal Crackers with us this week, yum!
