What we are learning?

Dear Parents, We hope you are having a beautiful week. This week we will continue learning about the parts of the human body. We will discuss how to take care of our body as well.
 We have scheduled exciting activities related to this theme so children can continue learning through fun experiences. Each one of these activities will help to continue strengthening gross and fine motor skills, language and socio-emotional skills. Some of the activities that children will enjoy are listed below:

·         Children will observe the parts of the human body through flashcards.
·         Children will identify the parts of the body while singing the song “The parts of my body.”
·         Children will participate in a game where they will identify their head, knees, and feet.
·         Children will practice crawling and walking.
 

Thank you for letting us play such an important role in your child’s life and we hope you have a great weekend.

Please make sure to sign up your child for this wonderful activity that runs from August through January of the school year. As you know, every week a child is given a set week that he/she are the student of the week. On Monday of their week, the student of the week should bring a poster and a book created with family pictures, favorite books, sports/hobbies, animals or anything they are interested in. Also, on their week parents and the student of the week may pick a day to present the poster and the book to the class. The student of the week may also bring favorite toys and books to school so they can share with classmates.
