Community Helpers

We have had such a fun week exploring different community helpers.  Four awesome moms answered the call to come and talk to the class and let us practice ASKING questions.  Our questioning skills have soared to new heights!  Thank you so much!

Autin's mom, Robin, came to visit us on Tuesday.  She brought us a special snack and read us Austin's favorite book in celebration of Austin's Star Student week.  

Austin's mom brought oceans or gummy fish and sour octopi.

Austin's favorite book, "I'm the Biggest Thing in the Ocean"

Then she talked to us about being a nurse and answered all of our questions.

Christian's mom, Cicely, also came to visit us on Tuesday to talk about being a nurse and taking care of our bodies and especially our eyes.

She let us each listen to our own hearts.

On Wednesday we made these adorable police hats.  For this picture, I told the children to "Mean Mug It"!

Loughran's mom, Dr. Wilson, came to visit us on Thursday.  She brought Penny, the most well-behaved, relaxed lab I have ever seen.

We each had a turn listing to Penny's heart.

We really wanted Penny to stay but she had to leave, but not before we got a cute little group picture.

Quincy's mom, Dr. Pratt, came to visit us on Friday.  She talked to us about being a doctor, answered all of our great questions, and then let us practice examining each other.  

Quincy was such a good model patient for his mom and the class.

Quincy got to give his mom a shot!
