Perhaps your child has mentioned to you that we will be presenting the Passion Play for the whole school on April 2nd at 1:30 pm, on the school stage. We will start practicing for this next week. We hope you can attend.
The children were absorbed in their learning about China. They paraded through the school halls and classrooms as a Lucky Lion and a Good Luck Dragon! Afterwards, the children practiced writing Chinese characters, and they were amazed that the Chinese do not have an alphabet . We will have a test on China this Friday, and each child has a study sheet to use in preparation for this test.
Starting Monday, we will be traveling to Brazil. We will be studying about the Tropical Rainforest as part of our science curriculum. The children are becoming more aware of different countries on the globe and we will be comparing and contrasting these countries as we travel along.
The roller skating unit has been fun for the children. It is amazing how this helps the children gain better skill in balancing their bodies. As a former ice skate lover, I am so thankful for the skills I gained as a child when it comes to catching my balance on icy sidewalks!
I look forward to seeing you at conferences next week, to share all the wonderful things your child is doing.
Sincerely yours,
Mrs. Barth
