WEEKLY UPDATE – May 14

We will be continuing our studies on Antarctica. It has been quite refreshing with the heat that is arriving. We will also begin our lessons on Pablo Picasso. He is known for four different art techniques and we will learn about them all. As we discover his styles of art, we will begin to create our own art using his methods. Cubism is the method we will be working on this week.

Robert Munch is our author this month and the children love his stories. Our circle time has been full of laughter as his writing is very funny.
