Out of the Rain forest and onto the beach. I appreciate all the donations towards the themes the past few weeks. We’ve had so much fun!
Yess yess Beach Week! We’ll explore things outside of the ocean like boats, games, critters, and sun safety, which gives you a hint to the following weeks theme…. Under the Sea. Friday the 10th we’ll have a Beach party, so bring your favorite beach towel! See sign up sheets on the doors of your classrooms. It’ll be our ”Kick off Summer” party.

Next week is… drum roll…. The Rain forest! You may notice a little change in our school. We love this theme! It encompasses previous themes such as bugs, frogs, caterpillars & butterflies. We’ll explore the great Kapok Tree, the layers of the Rain forest, animals, and tropical plants. Our good ole’ Squwaker will make his way around the school, as a native from New Jersey.. JK, the tropics. If you have anything to donate to this theme, please do! Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend!

Hey Guys,
FYI: I wanted to let you know that we tie dyed the t-shirts… soooo please for the first couple of washes make sure it’s not washed with anything of importance. It will bleed! If you haven’t already, please bring one in by tomorrow. We will be writing & designing on it. Thanks!

Well hope you got your fill of Frogs this week… I know we did! We learned that frogs have webbed feet that help them swim and can live in water and on land. We leaped, hopped and talked about how they grow and change just like us. Another great week @ the Kondo!
Sports/Fitness is next weeks theme. We’ll beef up our games, tumble on mats, limbo and end the week with a Sports-type banquet/Ice cream Social. It’ll be a blast;) All friends (except Tadpoles) please bring in a white t-shirt for decorating by Friday morning. AND if you have any sport items, please share. ex. basketball, baseball & glove, tennis racket, soccer ball, football, etc. For the little guys we’ll roll the ball, jump through hula hoops, play tug-a-war, and crafts. Looking forward to it!
