WEEKLY UPDATE – Feb. 13

Happy Birthday Arizona …. “100 years”. We will have a lunch party on Valentine’s Day to celebrate both Arizona’s birthday and Valentine’s Day. Both will fall on February 14th . There is also a “Child as Teacher” event scheduled for Thursday after school. Please be sure to sign up to reserve your special time for it.

CURRICULUM NOTES

This week’s book is “Wangari’s Trees of Peace”, by our author of the month Jeanette Winter. She has amazing stories and the children are thoroughly enjoying them.  Her books tie in with the continent we are studying – Africa -  and are usually nonfiction biographies, simplified.

HOMEWORK 

Engage in rich conversation that encourages critical thinking and promotes a thirst for curiosity, quenched only by research and knowledge.

Read Daily

Count everything.

Fridays are Show and Tell

This week for show and tell, we are bringing in an African animal picture from the internet.

THANK YOU  

Thanks for being so involved in your child’s life !!!
