Week of Feb. 27 - Mar. 3

Dear Prek Parents,

This week we will be reviewing all the concepts of the abc’s we’ve learned until now. We will review letters A-R. This will include the naming of the letters, their sound and their writing. We will review the vocabulary of the letters of this 3^rd quarter which are M-R.

The following link you will find a PowerPoint presentation with the vocabulary, in case you would like to review at home with your child.

We have talked to the students that we have started the hot season in Honduras. Please provide your child with a water bottle every day. Have them wear light clothes; they can bring a hat to protect from the sun, put sunscreen on their face and arms.

In Honduras we celebrate Father's Day on March 19^th. We would like to invite all of our DADDIES to save the date for Thursday, March 16^th at 8:00 a.m. We are planning on having something nice prepared for you. We hope you can come and spend some time with your child at school. Mommies we will need a little help from you and we will announce during the week. Thank you!
