This week we will learn our bird body parts and read about how birds see, hear, and taste. More and more birds are discovering our bird feeders (they ate all of the seed from both feeders last week)! This unit has been a lot of fun.
In Math we will experiment with liquid measurement and comparing weights of objects on a scale. We will also review our numbers 1-20.
In Nature/Gardening we will read, “A Hummingbird”, “The Duck and the Hen”, and “Wake Up” in our Christian Liberty Nature Readers. We will also plant Zinnias, Salvia, Lantana, Potato Vine, and Million Bells in our Perennial Garden.
In Phonics we will play Explode the Code games as we review our lowercase letters. We will play “Name It” and “Find It”.
Self-Control will be our Fruit of the Spirit for Bible this week. We will play a game called slow and steady and listen to a puppet show entitled, “Running in Circles”.
We will be decorating our Field Day Shirts this week. Field Day is Tuesday, May 26 at Veteran’s Park. Parents are encouraged to attend. Please bring your lawn chairs to set up at our group’s spot (there will be a blanket for the kids). A large umbrella is also a good idea in case of rain. There will be no school that day-we will meet at the park at 9:30. If you cannot go please make arrangements with Mrs. Camp.
Our End of Year Party will be on May 21 at Putt Putt Golf. There will be as sign up sheet in the hall- please let us know if you will be able to go with us. Please bring $6 for golf, pizza, and tokens.
There will be no school Memorial Day (Monday, May 25). Our last day of school Thursday, May 28. Summer School is June 15 thru July 23. We are planning lots of Summer Fun and special learning activities!
