In Music class with Keisha, the Cardinals sang the Owl Moon song in which they sang and did the movements. The main parts of the song are being quite, making your own heat, being brave and having hope when going Owling. Fantastic singing, Cardinals!! The Cardinals worked more on learning the Spanish words and movements to the song chuka-chaka (Choo-Choo).  Ask your Cardinal to sing you the  Owl Moon song.





Tuesday

Alicia greeted us in Spanish asking how each Cardinal was feeling. Friends proudly responded in Spanish 

Alicia: Buenos días, ________. (Good morning ______.)

Student: Buenos días Alicia. 

Alicia: ¿Cómo estás? (How are you?)

Student: Muy bien. (Very good) OR así-así (so-so) OR no muy bien (Not very good)

Alicia then reviewed shapes in Spanish with us. To connect with our building theme interest, Alicia continued by showing us a PowerPoint she created on houses around the world that are unique with many different shapes. As the Cardinals watched they raised a hand and shared what shapes they saw, pronouncing them in español. The Cardinals where very excited to engaged in this activity. Ask your Cardinal to tell you some shapes in Spanish and which house was their favorite. This week it was Isabelle's turn to squeeze la vaca!

Shapes - Formas
triangle - triángulo
rhombus - rombo
square - cuadrado
rectangle - rectángulo
oval - óvalo
circle - círculo
trapezoid - trapecio






















After Spanish class, we had a class discussion about what to call our house we created. The Cardinals create and voted on names such as Shinny, Fluffy, Cool, Cold, Cardinal House, Glory Elsa, Shinny Princess and Purple. By a show of hands for each name, then numbers were tallied and the house is now called "Cardinal House".


The Cardinals spent the afternoon having a picnic lunch and enjoying the fresh air on this warm March day!








          










Wednesday
This morning, Rowan's mom Roxanne came in to read us two of Rowan's favorite books in honor of their 5th birthday! Thank you, Rowan for sharing your mom with us!







We then headed off to our lower school assembly in the auditorium. The fourth graders shared their investigation conclusions of mold, germs and masks. The first graders sang their hero song based on their hero study. Part of the song was to "Remember to help others and to be your our hero!" We also sang sings with our head master, Rich. Following our assembly, the Cardinals had gym class with Josh. The Cardinals enjoyed choosing from foam frisbees, bowling, soccer balls and basketballs. Shooting hoops was again very popular this week!















Upon our arrival back in the classroom, the Cardinals had a special snack of cupcakes and juice brought in by Rowan to celebrate their 5th birthday! Thank you, Rowan for sharing your birthday with us! 






                                                            

Before heading outside to enjoy the beautiful spring like weather, the Cardinals gathered on the rug and discussed what to name the castle they built. Here are the suggestions: Cardinal castle, Butterfly, Royal, Flutter wings, Glory Elsa, Tiger, Fluffy Cardinal castle, Monster truck, Queen castle and Shinny. The castle is now called Fluffy Cardinal Castle
