Spring Newsletter and Updates

Last week's word of the week was: have.
Can I have another apple?
I have a toy for you.


This week we will focus on the word: because.
I like to play at the blocks because building things is fun.
I put on my jacket because I was cold.





Farm 
In the spring the FDK classes are planning a trip to a farm. The cost will be approximately $15. More details will follow!
Math
After the break, we will be starting addition and subtraction. Some tips for home: encourage students to count on from the bigger number (5 and 2 more is 7), sing songs (i.e., 5 Little Monkeys), play cards or dice games.
Environment
We will be talking about how to take care of our Earth and environment. Earth day is on April 22nd.
Literacy
We will be focusing on rhyming and re-telling. When reading at home, here are some important tips:
Ask students to name the characters.
Talk about what happened in the story (first, second, last).
What was the problem of the story?
How did the characters feel? What did they say?
Weather Reminders
As the weather changes, please remember to bring appropriate clothing. We will be going outside daily in snow, rain and mud! Remember to have a change of clothes in case it gets dirty!
