Teacher's Comments
| Hello! The weather is finally allowing for coats to be left behind during recess---something the kids have been waiting for since October! The first week of May was a busy one: highlights from last week include creating the beautiful butterflies hanging on our bulletin board, and flying kites with school families. May will continue to be a busy, fun month. Pre-K students will continue to learn about caterpillars and butterflies, followed by a unit on the country Brazil and rainforests, finishing up the month with a sealife theme. Please mark your calendars for Thursday, May 23rd. At 6:30 this evening we will celebrate the childrens' year in Pre-K. This event will take place in the classroom. It includes a showcase of the children's work, entertainment, and light refreshments. Children are asked to bring up to 2 guests, and we require siblings to stay home for this event :) A formal invitation will be sent home in May. On Friday, May 24th, students will participate in Our Lady of the Lake's annual "Jr. Olympics." This is a celebration in which each grade level takes on a country, learns about that country beforehand, and then wears clothing/a costume representing some aspect of their country to the event. Pre-K will represent Brazil. Students will begin the day by parading around the school, showcasing their costumes and carrying a flag representing their grade level. Much of the remainder of the day is spent in families, playing games outside. Fingers crossed for beautiful weather! Many Pre-K students are enjoying "story" writing in the classroom right now! Watch for beautifully illustrated and well written stories in your kiddos' file. A huge thank you to Rachel MacDougall and Amie Sele for their behind the scenes work as my room parents - I have really enjoyed parent help both in and out of the classroom. As always please let me know if you have any questions - thanks! |
| Please send your child to school with shoes that are good for movement on Tuesdays and Thursdays (tennis shoes, sturdy mary jane's, etc.) We have PE and Music/Movement on these two days and the children are able to participate fully in these type of shoes :) Thank you for helping your child prepare for their show and tell - this really helps when their time comes to "give clues" and talk about their special items in front of their classmates. |
