Week of April 6, 2014

Dear Parents,

EASTER CELEBRATION: We will be having an Easter Egg Hunt on Wednesday, April 16. Please send in 12 plastic eggs filled with non-candy items for our hunt and a basket for your child to put the eggs in, on Tuesday, April 15.

ANIMAL ALPHABET PLAY: Our “Animal Alphabet” Play will be at 9:A.M. on Friday, May 2nd. We will perform in Mrs. Tucker’s classroom and the play will last @ 20 minutes.  You may invite Grandparents to come. Some former TYKE parents will be painting the children’s faces before the play, so masks are not needed. You can alter the costumes I gave you, and change the name of the animal if you like. Please have your child practice saying their poem SLOWLY AND IN A LOUD VOICE.
PROGRAM: If you would like to volunteer to make programs for our play, please see me. I have several samples from past plays.

Here is an overview of this week:

Religion: We will be talking about St. Monica, Palm Sunday, The Last Supper, Good Friday and Easter. We will be attending Stations of the Cross on Friday, and our 7th grade students will be acting out the Passion of Jesus.

Math: We will continue to talk about measurement and practice writing our numbers to 40.

Animal of the Week: Panda

SRA READING: We will introduce the beginning and final sound of Jj, and Ff and the High Frequency Word____go. We will be adding beginning consonants to ____ay.

If you have any questions or concerns about your child’s progress, please email me to schedule a conference.
