Hello Parents! We have some warmer weather in the forecast this week! Hopefully we will be able to go outside and enjoy it. Please continue to fill out the daily attestations upon arrival.

Reminder: Valentine’s Day celebration will be held on Monday 2/14/22! Thank you to all who volunteered to bring in special goodies/treats for our class to celebrate. 

We are continuing Theme 5 “Imagine It, Make It”  and starting Unit 2 “Tools We Use”. BIG Idea: I can use tools to create and build. Knowledge Focus: Children learn how imagination and creativity shape our world. Social-Emotional Focus: Initiative. The theme vocabulary words include: bridge, build, ramp, tools and structure. Math vocabulary words include: next, pattern and repeats.

We will be learning the letter Pp, number 16 and continue to review shapes and colors. We will be reading the books “Science Tools”, “The Shape of Things” and “Alphabet Under Construction”. We will continue to learn about influential people of color to honor Black History Month. This week we are taking a closer look at Jackie Robinson’s life and impact he had on society. This week is also Dental Health Week. The children will receive a special gift they can take home from KidSmiles! We will also read a dental health Scholastic.

We are finishing up our Valentine’s Day crafts this week as well. Keep an eye out on the mail, you will receive a special surprise!

For Jesus Time, Mrs. Gonzalez will discuss Jesus and his 12 disciples he chose. We will sing the song “Follow Me”. We will also sing the song “Jesus Loves Me” in honor of Valentine’s Day.
