May Recap:

Our theme of the month was Dinosaurs and Africa. Many of the children went on dinosaur hunts and dug for fossils in our sandboxes. They learned about the different types of dinosaurs, such as herbivores, omnivores, and carnivores. The children learned about Africa, where it is found on the map, the culture, environment, and the language they speak. The children also learned about the parts of a butterfly and its life cycle. The book in May was The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle. The children enjoyed spending more time outside since the weather has been so lovely. They learned a lot of new exercises along with yoga moves. 

In May, we had many celebrations we all shared, such as Teacher Appreciation Week and Mother's Day. We even all got together for our Parent-Teacher Conferences. We want to thank everyone who participated in these events during this past month, as it was so much fun seeing everyone enjoying themselves and showering us all with so many gifts and love. We also honored those we have lost defending our Country in observance of Memorial Day.

June News:

They will also be learning about our home state of California; they are studying our state bird, flower, and flag. Our literary focus of this month is the Little Red Hen by Paul Galdone. We have many fun Art activities planned for each subject. Please keep an eye out for upcoming essential dates such as our Father's Day celebration, Graduation, etc.
