3/30 Classroom Update

This week, we learned all about the letter Q and communities. We practiced writing the letter Q and made the letter Q into a queen for our letter books. We also learned about different types of communities, places in our community, and important jobs people do in our community. Together, we created a classroom community with many different types of buildings and places we might see in our community. We also learned about important community helper jobs and wrote about what kinds of jobs we would like to do when we grow up!
