Memorial Day

Children will color the flag using red and blue crayons appropriately.

Measurement Day

When teaching measurement to young children provide lots of opportunities for the students to order objects by size. Use everyday activities and real objects to help children understand measurement concepts.

The terms non-standard and standard are often used when describing prescribed learning outcomes for measurement.

Measuring with non-standard units means measuring things with blocks, pencils, hands, feet, etc. As long as the items used to measure with are all the same size, e.g. identical blocks or brand new pencils, they are suitable to use.

Circus Day

Children will gain experience in handling a brush and paint and by repeating simple shapes, students will create pattern. Students will demonstrate awareness of emotion by creating "sad" and "happy" faces.

# back construction paper
# White crayon
# Colored glitter

On the black paper students will draw circles (to eventually become happy/sad faces of clowns) using a white crayon.
Once the face is complete the child will add details using glue, finally finishing by sprinkling glitter.

Relative's Day

Child will be read "The Day the Relative's Came", discussing the story and members of the family.
Child will create a 'family tree' using photographs.

Bake Chocolate Cookies Day

* 3/4 cup butter flavored shortening
* 1 1/4 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
* 2 tbsp milk
* 1 tbsp vanilla
* 1 egg
* 1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
* 1 tsp salt
* 3/4 tsp baking soda
* 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips


Directions:
Heat oven to 375. Combine butter flavored shortening, brown sugar, milk, and vanilla in large bowl. Beat with mixer at medium speed until well blended. Beat egg into creamed mixture.

Combine flour, salt, and baking soda. Mix into creamed mixture just until blended. Stir in chocolate chips and pecan pieces.

Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough 3 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheet. Bake one baking sheet at a time for 8 to 10 minutes for chewy cookies, or 11 to 3 minutes for crisp cookies.

* Gift Ideas
Use these treats as gifts! Using plastic wrap, place 2-3 treats in the center and gather the ends at the top. Finish it by securing each bundle with a ribbon. Line a cookie tin with tissue paper, flare out the edges for a decorative look. Then carefully place the goodies into the cookie tins, fold the edges of the tissue paper carefully over the top of the treats and secure with cookie tin lid. Adorn the top with a colorful bow.
