North Preschool May Newsletter

birds

North Preschool Families,

We are so excited that North Pre 1 and North Pre 2 are officially combined! Going forward we will have one combined North preschool class! We will still be taking precautions such as individual sensory bins, classroom sanitized and disinfected twice per day, and masks in the building, but it is so nice that our class may now combine and utilize the entire north space together.

For the month of May we are covering all things birds and flowers. Some of our learning objectives will include:

• identify different types of birds

• what birds eat

• where birds live

• parts of the bird

• how flowers grow

• parts of flowers

• identify types of flowers

Much of this knowledge will come from our daily circle lessons- then talked about throughout the day. Of course our classroom has lots of fun bird and flower work and décor, too!

Infant May Newsletter

Flowers

Happy May, Families! We haven’t seen too many April showers, but we are so excited to celebrate the month of May with flowers anyway! Our classroom work will incorporate flowers and other spring-time themes in fun ways. Our sensory bin has transformed into a pick your own flower station, complete with grass, flower leaves and stems, and colorful flowers that the infants can work on building. We have several great fine motor activities including a flower puzzle and a basket of colorful floral containers for practicing opening & closing (an infant room fave!) Of course our class will also celebrate the month by completing several spring-time art projects. So much fun!
