 Theme of the week: “The Universe and I ” (El Universo y yo)

Week of June 8^th - June 12^th

Hello Sapitos Parents,

I hope you had a great weekend! We are at the end of our school year! We are so excited to see how the children have grown! They have done a great job with their scholarship development during this year. We’re sure they will make extraordinary advances in Ositos class. Summer camp is coming! We will have fun activities in which our Sapitos will feel happy and loved!

This week, we will talk about the moon. We will observe pictures of the different phases of the moon and talk about the difference between each one. We will make a space ship in which children will pretend to fly to the moon! Also, children will play making the figure of the moon using sand, corn flour, and water.  All these ingredients mixed will help them to imagine the texture of the moon’s surface.

At home, you can encourage your child to draw the moon in its different phases. Explain in your words that the moon is illuminated because it reflects the light from the sun. Take the time to walk with him/her outside at night and ask them to find it!

Friendly Reminders:                                                                                   

·         Make sure your child has extra clothes in her/his cubby.

·         Read your child’s journal every day that way you can know what your child learned at class and you can strengthen it at home.

·         Take your child’s blanket home every Friday to wash it.

·         Take your child’s art work which is in his/her cubby every day.

Important Upcoming Dates:

June 5^th: Report cards will be sent home.

June 8^th – 12^th: Red shirt swap

June 11th: Parents/Teacher conferences - Please sign up in the sheet that will be outside of the classroom if you would like to have a conference about your child’s development, and let Miss Amparo or I know if you need an arrangement of the time for the conference.

Thank you notes:

I want to thank to all the parents for all congratulatory words and demonstrations of love that I received for my birthday. I had a special time with our Sapitos. They made me feel loved! I am very fortunate to be their teacher! Muchas gracias!

Have a great weekend!
