Hello Parents! I hope everyone had a great weekend and a very happy Mother’s Day! Hoping to see some more sun this week. Please continue to complete the daily attestations each morning.

We are starting a new theme this week! We are starting theme 8 unit 1 called “Going New Places”. BIG Idea: I am ready to go new places. 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: travel, trip and visit. Math vocabulary words include: behind, left, right and position.

We will continue to review the alphabet, numbers 1-20, shapes and colors. We will be reading the books “In Our Country”, “We’re Going on a Lion Hunt”, “Can You Say Peace?” and “You and Me Together”.

We will continue to talk about all things ladybugs and start discussing bees and birds.

For Jesus time, we will continue to recite The Lord’s Prayer at snack and lunch time as well as continue to practice our graduation songs.

As of last week, we started to learn some sight words! There will be worksheets that will be sent home after each completed sight word. These are just for more practice with your child. They are not apart of the homework packet and are optional.
