We all enjoyed celebrating this week! Thank you, thank you for donating all the plants!!

Next week will be Caterpillars to Butterflies.. oooo so fun! One of the fun games planned is “Cocoon”. How to play: one person wraps up the other with toilet paper, moves around and breaks out of the cocoon turning into a beautiful butterfly. This is a great learning experience!

If you have any dress up wings, books, and or DVDs please bring them in on Monday.

Thanks!

Weekly Theme Update April 12th-16th

April 12, 2010

This week we will be celebrating Week of the Young Child. This is a nationally recognized week. Please take time to notice all of the quotes around the school. As I wrote them and hung them on the wall I was inspired by them. I hope you will be too! We will celebrate this by playing games and enjoying the perfect weather!

NAEYC first established the Week of the Young Child in 1971, recognizing that the early childhood years (birth through age 8) lay the foundation for children’s success in school and later life. The Week of the Young Child is a time to plan how we–as citizens of a community, of a state, and of a nation–will better meet the needs of all young children and their families.
