Hello Parents! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I can’t believe there is less than 20 days left of school!! We will begin sending home items that are not being used. Please send in a large shopping bag at your earliest connivence. 

Reminder – This is a three day week! There is a staff professional development day on Thursday 5/25 and there will be no school for the children. There will also be no school Friday 5/26 and Monday 5/29 due to Memorial Day Weekend. 

Important Dates – 

  • ECC Annual Family Picnic – June 2nd
  • Pre-K Graduation and Last Day of School – June 13th (more details to come in the following month)

We are continuing Theme 8 and starting Unit 2 “Trying New Things”. BIG Idea: I feel comfortable trying new things. Knowledge Focus: Children reflect on all the ways they have grown and changed during the year. Social-Emotional Focus: Persistence. The theme vocabulary words include: challenge, encourage and try. Math vocabulary words include: pattern and repeats.

We will continue to review letters A-Z, numbers 1-20, shapes, colors, counting by 10’s and learn new sight words! We will be reading the books “Giraffes Can’t Dance”, “Dot the Fire Dog”, “Little Bat” and “Chicka Chicka Boom Boom”. Our caterpillars have officially moved into the chrysalis stage! They will stay in there for a week or two and then they will transform into a butterfly!

We will be discussing Bees and backyard critters this week as well!

For Jesus Time, Mrs. Gonzalez will discuss the story of Noah’s Arc. We will continue to pray before snack and lunch. We will also continue to practice our Graduation songs. Stay tuned on our Classdojo for important updates/information!
