Caterpillars & Butterflies


This week our theme was ‘Butterflies & Caterpillars’.  The children made a patterned caterpillar, created a butterfly book, completed a butterfly’s life cycle and painted a caterpillar and butterfly.  We also went to visit the Kindergarten classrooms in preparation for next year.

Next week our theme will be ‘Bugs & Frogs’.  (Remember there is no school on Monday due to Memorial Day).  On Wednesday & Thursday we will take a hike in the school forest and go on a bug hunt (weather permitting) so please dress your child for a hike in the woods.  The children will be making a frog, a paint blot bug and playing a bug # matching game. 

 Reminders & Updates:                                    
       *No School: Monday, May 30th- Memorial Day
*Library: We have had our last library class so be sure all books
are returned by the end of the year.
*School Forest:  We will take a trip to the School Forest on May
30th & 31st.  Please dress your child for the woods that day
including socks, tennis shoes, long pants, baseball caps, etc…  It
would also be a good idea to spray your child with bug spray
before school that day.
*End of the Year Celebration: Please dress your child in tennis
shoes for our walk to the Medford City Park on June 5th & 6th. 
The kitchen will be providing peanut butter & jelly sandwiches
along with fruits & veggies for lunch that day.
*Last Day of Class: June 5th OR 6th.  School will be dismissed 2
hours early on the 6th so please plan accordingly.
