Dear Prek Parents,


Happy Mother’s Day to all the fabulous mommies we have in Prek. Thank you for always giving your support.

Reminders:
- Every Tuesday Homework is send home. Homework should be back to school on Thursday. Please don’t forget to send the folder and notebook back
-Please make sure your child is ONLY bringing toys of topics required by the teacher.
-Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday's children have Motricity class. We are requesting that please send your child with tennis shoes and with shorts or pants. No skirts and no sandals. This is so that your child can be able to participate in every activity done during the class.

This week we will continue learning about our abc. We will be working on recognizing the letters with their sound, letter formation, vocabulary of the letter, remember always emphasizing on the short vowel sounds. This week we will be studying about the letter Zz. The vocabulary words for this letter are: zig-zag, zoo, zebra, zero, zipper, zucchinni

Children assigned should take at least five (5) items that they have at home that begin with this letter. Items should be at school on Tuesday and we will send them back on Friday. For this week we have Diego V.  (Prek”A”) and Catalina (Prek”B”).
Thank you for your support!!

Some of the stories we will be reading this week are:
Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by Bill Martin Jr.,The 26 characters in this rhythmic, rhyming baby book are a lowercase alphabet with attitude. "A told b, and b told c, 'I'll meet you at the top of the coconut tree'"--which probably seemed like a good idea until the other 23 members of the gang decided to follow suit. The palm tree standing straight and tall on the first page begins to groan and bend under its alphabetical burden. First the coconuts fall off, then ("Chicka chicka... BOOM! BOOM!") all the letters also end up in a big heap underneath.



If you have any magazines at home that you do not need at all. Please send them over to your kid’s classroom. They are very welcome. Thank you.
In math, will continue working with numbers. We will continue working with numbers 0-15 on how to represent and identify using tally marks, ten frames, number formation, and name of the number, one-to-one correspondence, and sequencing.

Our Nursery Rhyme this week is: “The Counting Zoo


In Science we will begin learning the unit about Zoo Animals. We are
