Hi Families,
Last week we wrapped up our planting and growing unit by eating some yummy cups of dirt! Ask your Busy Bee if they liked it. We are still watching our seeds that we are growing and will send them home when we have had a chance to watch their progress and when they are ready to be planted in the ground.
This week we start a fun learning unit all about Dinosaurs. We will be talking about the different dinosaurs,what they ate, what their habitat was like and what they looked like. Everyone will be choosing a dinosaur to do a “report” on. Watch for the paper to come home this week. This is a take home project and will need your support. The kids will need to find a picture of their dinosaur and find 2 or 3 facts about it(what they ate,how big) that they can tell the class during circle time. Let me know if you have any questions about this project when it is sent home.
Reading groups will be on Monday/Tuesday so be sure your Busy Bee has their folder back at school, so they can take home new materials each week. We will continue with Reading groups through the month of May.
Graduation will be one day only, Tuesday June 17th. The morning class will be at 10:30 AM . If this is not your child’s regular day please plan on them coming to school this day. The Afternoon class will have Graduation at 1:30. Look for the sign up sheet in the hall to let me know how many will be attending our Graduation, so we can plan for food, punch and seating.
We will need some help with set up/clean up if you still need volunteer hours this would be a great time to complete them.
The weather looks good this week, so plan on the bikes being out and sending your child’s helmet to school if they want to ride. Also, sending kids in sweaters or sweatshirts and shoes that are easy to run and play in, can make outside time much more enjoyable.
