NEWSLETTER “Shady School” April 2014

April 1, 2014

Dear Parents,

     St. Patrick’s Day was great fun! The classroom was filled with green! The children had fun decorating the classroom with pots o’ gold, rainbows, shamrocks, and lucky leprechauns. We also enjoyed eating green bagels and finding gold left by our friend Mr. Leprechaun. We loved singing songs about the leprechaun too. We also learned about forest animals such as, the owl, hedgehog, snake, and bear. We read stories and learned about what they like to eat.

PastedGraphic-4     Our focus for the month of April will be on Farm Animals, Spring, 5 senses, and Planting. We will learn how important it is for our earth to have rain for nature to grow. The class will also be reading about the Lorax to learn about Earth day and pollution.

     Our Spring party will be held on Thursday, April 17th. The children will enjoy a special egg hunt and goodies! Please sign-up to bring one in (if you sign up for cupcakes, please bring in mini cupcakes or munchkins it is much easier for children to handle).

     Everyday at circle time the toddlers review numbers, letters, colors and our daily songs. The children are really doing well and they love to do their projects too! They also enjoy doing music, movement and exercise everyday.

     School pictures will be taken on Tuesday, April 15th at 9:00 am. Everyone is welcome to take photos on that day even if it is not your scheduled day.PastedGraphic-3

     We are also practicing for our “End of the Year” concert/graduation. If you could please bring $15.00 cash in an envelope per child to help cover the cost of the shirts and costumes for graduation as soon as possible. Our graduation will be held on Friday, June 20th at 4:00 p.m.
