Dear Preschool Families,

We are drawing near the end of the preschool year. Our days are literally numbered. Our preschool calendar is busy with activity. Below is a special date you will want to mark on your calendar.

Thursday, May 13: Fun Day in the Park - Parents are welcome to spend part or all of the class time with us. We will eat our snack in the park and play some games to celebrate the close of our preschool year.

Even though our days are numbered we will continue to be quite busy in our classroom.  We will be finishing up the alphabet, (we are on the letter “V” now), wrapping up colors, and doing some review of shapes and numbers.

Soon, our focus will be a garden center, complete with seeds, pots, flowers, watering cans, hats (it gets so hot working out in the garden in the sun), and gardening tools.  This has proven to be a very popular center with the students.

Later this month, we will have a theme on dinosaurs. T-Rex has an X in his name and dinosaurs are e-X-tinct. During this time, if you walk past our door and hear a lot of growling and screeches...it's probably just the dinosaurs.

Thank you to all of the parents helpers that "hopped" all around the park and made our Easter Egg Hunt happen.  Thank you to everyone for sending stuffed eggs and supplied special items for our party.  It was a hit.

Please remember the weather is changing and because of that we are able to spend some time outside.  Please make sure your child has appropriate clothes for Spring.
