WHAT’S HAPPENING THIS MONTH?
2s
Mrs. G. & Mrs. Obaker
April is here and it is finally spring! Your children continue to grow and develop, and it is a privilege to be a part of that! April will be a busy month for the 2s. We will explore insects including, ladybugs, dragonflies and caterpillars and the beautiful changes that take place in nature! The warmer weather will make our playground time a perfect time to explore. Spring had sprung!
3s
Mrs. Brown & Mrs. Musci
The warmer weather is here, and we’ll be enjoying all spring has to offer starting with our unit on the new season. This leads into a more in depth look at plants and trees. We’ll be dissecting a flower, growing some of our own, and learning about the life cycle of plants. Lots of hands-on learning with exploration right in the school’s “back yard!” We’ll begin our “Student of the Day” project where each child will have a special opportunity to showcase a bit of themselves for their classmates. This will start after spring break, and more specific information about this will be sent home and posted on ClassTag. We hope you have a wonderful spring break!
3s
Mrs. Bosher & Mrs. Pawlak
Spring has finally sprung, and we have been having so much fun learning about it! Once we return from spring break, we will finish up our unit on Spring by talking about Springtime animals and weather. There will even be an experiment! Look for our plants to come home soon. The fun continues when we begin an Insect unit at the end of the month and explore all things creepy crawly. Life cycles will be a main focus and we will get witness metamorphosis firsthand.
4s
Mrs. Pullias & Mrs. Joyce
With spring finally here and (hopefully!) no more cold weather our class will move on to the wonderful changes that occur during this beautiful season! From seed to flower and caterpillar to butterfly, we will explore and discuss how things change and grow. We’ll also observe the Spring weather and see if April showers really do bring May flowers! Of course, we will read, The Very Hungry Caterpillar and use the book as a basis for many fun activities, including making our own caterpillar snack! Our Amazing Alphabet Adventure will continue with the letters T, U and V and we will continue to work on our writing, counting and number recognition skills. We are also going to have fun looking at pictures and creating sentences to describe what we see! This season lends itself to many beautiful arts and craft projects, so we will indeed be very busy this month!
