Hello Parents! Although this is a short week, we have a fun filled three days ahead of us.  Our class will be working on exciting Easter crafts and they will go on an Easter egg hunt.  We will end class Wednesday afternoon with an Easter party and a movie.  I’m excited to see what movie our class votes on to watch.  Please remember to complete the daily attestations each morning prior to coming to school.  

This week we will finish the alphabet with the letter Zz.  We will continue reviewing the numbers 1-20 through one to one correspondence. Please continue to practice sight words: a, green, and, red, away, blue, big, yellow. The sight words for this week are “can” and “come”. We are continuing with our theme, Growing Up Healthy. This week’s topic will focus on “Staying Safe” with the big idea centralizing around knowing what to do to be safe. The vocabulary words we will learn this week are: accident, caution, danger, emergency, harm, injury and safety. We will read the books “Always be Safe” and “Please Play Safe! Penguin’s Guide to Playground Safety.”  For math we will learn words such as equal and share.

In this week’s Scholastic Weekly Reader, titled “1 Egg, 2 Eggs, I See Blue Eggs,” children will identify animals that lay eggs and learn what the eggs look like. During Jesus time, we will talk about Holy Week, Good Friday and Easter Sunday.

Our activities this week include:
Playground: Weekdays 10:30 am
Art: Wednesday 11:00 am
