We hope everyone had a wonderful Spring Break!  It was great hearing all about some of our students’ family trips.

This month has been very busy.  The children are finishing up their Rain Forest studies and have done many research papers, circle maps ,and picture stories about the Rain Forest.  We have read books, watched movie clips about the different animals that live in the Rain Forest (on Ms. Maryam’s iPad), and created our very own pictures of the different layers of the Rain Forest.

We are also finishing up our South America studies.  The children have learned some of the different countries that make up South America, and a little about each of their culture.

The Middle School students held a service day where our children had the opportunity to make different items for children that are less fortunate then we are.  Items such as lunch bags, bracelets, birthday cards, and book markers were a few of the activities our students helped to decorate.  This was a great example for the children to give back to their community and to help others that are in need.

On April 22nd we celebrated Earth Day to remind the children to reuse, reduce, and recycle.   The children made new rainbow colored crayons using old ones they found from home, and also made a cardboard light bulb (using an old cereal box) to help remind them to turn off the lights after leaving a room.
