We are so happy to announce that our afternoon class has grown! New friends have joined our P3 family and we are so happy to have them. It’s amazing to watch our older friends be such great mentors!
During the last half of this month we continued to study the solar system, including the phases of the moon. The children had a blast with this lesson because we did it with Oreos! What better way to learn about moon phases by biting chunks of the frosting? We have also had several parents come in for circle time to read books about space, and polar and Antarctic animals to support our monthly themes. The children love having books read to them…thank you so much to our volunteers.
We are also very proud of your little ones, as there has been a surge of amazing progress in building words and sound blending. Keep up the good work at home! Even during this tech era, it’s so important to read with your child with a good old fashioned book for at least 20 minutes a day.
Sign-up sheets for classroom volunteers and practical life supplies are posted outside the classroom. Please feel free to sign up and set up dates with any of the teachers.
