We have been having a wonderful month of April! We have been talking all about Earth Day and ways to save the earth. We made our own little recycling boxes with all kinds of things we can recycle to put in them. We have read many books about caring for the earth and the animals and people. Turn off the water while brushing your teeth, recycling, planting trees, picking up litter, walking or riding your bike whenever possible, and many more ideas have been discussed.
We have been investigating the letter P and learned about pigs. Pigs are pink and we also learned about purple. I hope you've enjoyed the many projects and papers that come home! The kids put a lot of work into them. We sing a lot of songs and have many discussions throughout the day.
Now it's time for Easter! We had an Easter Egg hunt today. It was raining, so we had it indoors, but it was still a lot of fun :) We colored some eggs and talked about eggs and ovals. We discussed how eggs are a symbol of new life. The true meaning behind Easter is the new life of Jesus! We have read many stories about Easter, some of them are Easter egg hunts right in the book!
The weather has been warmer (some of the time!), but it gets very wet and muddy. Make sure to bring an extra set of clothing, please.
