Week: July 24th, 2017 to July 28th, 2017 Feature Theme: Little Creators

What  are we learning?

Dear Parents,

 

We hope you are having a beautiful week. This week the children will learn everything about being little creators and we will encourage children to be creative. Children will create, build and design objects using recycled material.

 

We have scheduled learning activities related to this theme to continue strengthening gross and fine motor skills, language and socio-emotional skills so children can continue learning through experiences. They will touch and feel different textures with their hands and feet and will have fun while playing with the plastic animal toy and creating crafts.

 

Thank you for letting us play such an important role in your child’s life and we hope you have a great weekend.

 

Miss Claudia, Miss Rosa & Miss Eliana
