Hello Parents,
This week we worked on rhyming words. We read some fun rhyming books titled: Ted in the Red Bed, Big Pig on a Dig, Fat Cat on a Mat, and Ted Builds a Shed. As we read these books I asked the kids to tell me what rhyming words they heard on that page. We also worked on rhyming worksheets.
Last Thursday was FIELD DAY at the Clark School. The Preschool did participate in these fun activities!!!!!!

Our crafts this week will be painting a mural of what the beach looks like, creating their own sand castles, and other fun beach activities.

Month of MAY
Hello All,
Sorry that I have not update this month. But here is a brief over view of what we have done this month.
We started the month off with talking about our families. We drew portraits of the people in our family. We also had a Great MOTHER'S DAY TEA!!! It was GREAT to talk to all the moms, grandmothers, and aunts. Thank you for coming!!! WE HAD SUCH A FUN TIME CELEBRATING THIS DAY!!! I hope all the MOM'S had a GREAT DAY TOO!!!
The next week we read books written and illustrated by Eric Carle. We read Little Cloud, The Very Hungary Caterpillar, and Roster Sees the World. After reading these stories we made crafts and talked about clouds, caterpillars, butterflies and the different animals in the stories. With the book Little Cloud, the kids used there imaginations about what they see up in the clouds, then we made our own clouds. With the book the Very Hungary Caterpillar, we talked about how a caterpillar turns into a butterfly and we made coffee filter butterflies. With the book Rooster Sees the World, we did a math activity, adding the animals as they join in on the adventure, and subtracted as the animals left to go home.
Last week we read stories written by Dr. Seuss. We had a lot of fun with these stories. We read Go, Dog, Go; The Cat in the Hat, Green Eggs and Ham, Horton Hears a Who, If I Ran the Zoo, and The Lax and Other Stories. We made hats just like the cats from the book, we ate green eggs and ham for snack, we watched Horton Hears a Who, and we made funny animals that would be in our zoo.
Last week we also said GOOD-BYE to 2 of our friends KEVIN and KATRINA. We hope they have a great summer. For their special day we had s'mores for snack and wore our PJ's to school.
This week we are learning about different sports games. We will be playing Soccer and Basketball outside. We will also be doing a lot of work from the website TRUE-LEARNING.COM.
Sarah and I have also switched to the teacher summer schedule. Kalynn will be working every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Sarah will be working every Thursday and Friday.
REMINDER: WE WILL NOT HAVE SCHOOL ON MONDAY MAY 31st. Due to MEMORIAL DAY!!!
Have a great week.

Hello Parents:
This week we learned about plants and how they grow. We talked about what you see in gardens and what you can plant. On Tuesday, we planted green beans, we will be observing their growth for the rest of the school year. We have also have been leaning about insects. We talked about the different bugs we see in our own yards. For our craft we created our own bugs. The kids had a lot of fun making these. We tied learning about bugs and learning about plants together by figuring out that bugs help plants grow. The kids thought this was really cool.
Today we went to Monkey Joe's with Groups 1&2. The kids had a BLAST!!!! They jumped around from one jumping area to another. We stayed for an hour and a half.
Next week we will be learning about family. We will be reading books, learning songs, and creating family portraits.
REMINDER: FRIDAY MAY 7TH WE WILL BE HAVING A MOTHER'S DAY TEA FROM 8-10. FEEL FREE TO EXTEND THE INVITATION TO GRANDMOTHERS, AUNTS, OR A SPECIAL FEMALE FRIEND.
Also Happy MAY DAY tomorrow and the big Horse Race...KENTUCKY DERBY.

Hello,
This week we learned about the Post Office. We looked a pictures from the book A Visit to the Post Office. The kids told us what they thought a post office was. On Monday, we talked about rain clouds, rain, and rainbows. We read the book Rainy Day, which explains what happens when it is going to rain. On Tuesday, the kids made their own Postage Stamp. On Thursday, we talked more about Spring time and what changes we see. After discussing this we drew pictures of SPRING TIME. Please look for them when you enter the classroom. Today we traced our addresses and mailed letters to ourselves. We also played Post Office; the kids got to be either the postal worker or the person sending a letter, they had to "buy" a stamp to put on their letter, then hand them to the postal worker. The postal worker had to sort the mail in to piles, colors of the stamps, then they had to deliver the mail to their friends cubbies. They had a lot of fun doing this. With the rainy days we were not able to go outside as much as we would like too so we had inside play playing hide n' seek and doing a lot of art projects.
Next week we will be learning about Firefighters. We will talk about what they do and read books about them.
We also had a Birthday this week. HAPPY BIRTHDAY CYUBA!!!!!!!
Have a great weekend!!!!
