Volcanoes and Vegetables

Hello Purple Room Parents,

Since summer and graduation are fast approaching, we will be focusing on 2 letters a week for the next few weeks to make sure we get through all of them. This next week we will be talking about letters V and W. For the letter V we will be talking about volcanoes as requested by the students. We will be doing an experiment and some research on active and inactive volcanoes around the world.

Another topic that I find important is vegetables. We will discuss the benefits of eating them and the importance of doing so. We will also be having some healthy snacks to encourage healthy eating choices.

For the letter W we will discuss the weather and how it all works. We will also talk about the seasons of the year and how weather plays a big role in the seasons. We will be making crafts based on weather and seasons. We will then discuss the world and the continents within the world. We will talk more closely about North America and where we are in the world. Tentatively, Friday will be another Water Day. I will let you know as the day gets closer.

Also, a quick reminder that our Mother's Day celebration is this coming Wednesday and Thursday (5/8 and 5/9) from 8:30 am to 10:30 am. We hope to see you all there.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Warm regards,
Shaina
