Classroom: Pajaritos

Blog Title: All about my body

Week: September 23rd, 2019 to September 27th, 2019

What are we learning?

Dear Parents, 

We hope you are having a wonderful week. This week is our last week of the theme “All about my body.” We will mainly review everything we have learned about it so far.

We have scheduled exciting activities related to this theme so children can continue learning through fun experiences such as determining the concept of up and down using our arms and hands, dancing to the rhythm of the song “The parts of the body” and observing flashcards of the parts of the body.  Each one of these activities will help to continue strengthening gross and fine motor skills, language, and socio-emotional skills.

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

Year-Round Activities

Student of the Week

Please make sure to sign up your child for this beautiful 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 is 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 and other interests. Parents will pick a day to present a banner to the classroom. The student of the week may also bring favorite toys and books to school so they can share with classmates.

Sign up today! Sign-up sheets are available at the entrance of the classroom.
