April Recap:

In April, the children concentrated on Australia as well as Planet Earth. The children worked in the garden and discussed caring for the planet to help celebrate Earth Day. They also learned the importance of recycling and keeping our world clean. April includes an annual celebration called the "Week of the Young Child." The children were excited about the different themes during the week. The children enjoyed making instruments, eating healthy snacks, building, creating art, and showing off their families. We also had fun with crazy socks, crazy hair, backward dressing, crazy hats, and pajama day. The children had so much fun making volcanoes in their classrooms. It helps fill our library with books that the children enjoy reading. We want to thank all our parents for your scholastic purchases.
