April Showers Bring...May Flowers

I can't believe we are headed into our final month of school.  There are only 4 more weeks of school left (16 days)!  This year has flown by!

We finished up our study of construction this week.  The children really enjoyed painting construction vests.  We learned the name of some tools, then glued pictures of tools onto a "tool belt" in a pattern.  Kathy Strasser, our school nurse, visited our classroom to tell us about her job and showed us some of the tools she uses.  The children got a chance to use and explore some of her tools (thermometer, stethoscope, gloves, etc...).  This week's letter - Z.  Next week Y and then Q.  After we finish all the letters, we will review the letters we have learned.   

Next week, we will begin our beach and ocean study.  We need a few bags of colored goldfish crackers for a sorting activity.  If you would like to donate colored goldfish crackers, please send them in next week.
