Hello Parents! I can’t believe Spring is right around the corner. I can’t wait for warmer weather! The change in weather always brings about more germs. Please continue to pack weather-appropriate clothing and if possible, keep your child home if they are not feeling well.

We are starting Theme 6 “Growing Up Healthy” and unit 1 “My Senses”. BIG Idea: The five senses help me explore my world. Knowledge Focus: Children learn about their bodies and how to take care of themselves. Social-Emotional Focus: Self-Awareness. The theme vocabulary words include: hear, see, sight, smell, sound, taste, touch and senses. Math vocabulary words include: oval, rectangle and rhombus.

We will be learning the letter Tt, number 19, continue to review shapes and colors, and complete our weekly journal on Friday’s. We will be reading the books “Look, Listen and Learn”, “Good Food”, “My Five Senses” and “The Shape of Things”. We will be creating various St. Patrick’s Day crafts due to the upcoming holiday next week. We will also be starting our Easter crafts this week. More details regarding Easter celebrations to come! Keep an eye out on our Classdojo for all information.

For Jesus time, Mrs. Gonzalez will discuss the story of how Jesus fed 5,000 people. We will continue to complete our Lent informational packet, and start a new prayer! We will begin to recite the Lord’s prayer before snack and lunchtime.
