April Recap:

In April, our month's theme was Islands and Volcanoes. Our children enjoyed various art projects to portray this theme. They also made volcanoes with different materials and learned how they erupt. Our friends also enjoyed making their islands and doing other activities. Our literature focus for the month was Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by Bill Martin Jr. and John Archambault. Many children enjoyed this book for the rhyming sentences and shouting out the first letter of their names. We had many fun projects related to the book, such as Art, Cooking enrichment, and sing-a-longs.

This past month also brought many enjoyable weeks, starting with Spring Break, then the Week of The Young Child, which we celebrated with Spirit Week, and had our Scholastic Book Fair. The highlight of the month had to go to our Annual Egg Hunt; thanks to all the donations from our loving parents, we could have many eggs to hide and hunt! Enrichments went hand in hand with our month's theme, and the children studied aborigine Music and learned the sounds of new instruments.

May News:

In May, our theme of the month is Wales and Migration. The children are learning all about whales and the different kinds of whales that inhabit our earth. Our literary focus will be The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle, a classic book I am sure you all remember.

We are looking forward to having all the mothers join us for the Tea Party celebration this month on May 10^th.
