Dear Parents,

  

We hope everyone enjoyed their weekend!

This is our last week of school. We are amazed at how fast the time went by. It was an honor and pleasure being your child’s teacher this year. We had the immense pleasure of watching them learn and grow throughout the year. For those of you who are leaving the Discovery School community we wish you the best of luck on your new endeavors. For those of you, who are returning, see you next year! To everyone have a safe, fun, and awesome summer!

You are invited to watch the fairy tales the children have been working on this 

Thursday at 8:15. The plays are short versions of the traditional fairy tales. We hope you can join us.

If you have any leftover Piñata candy / toys from "goody bags" that you would like to donate to the class we would really appreciate it. We will be using it for a fun activity on the last day of school.

  

This week your child will inquire into the following: 

Language Arts

Working with Words:This week your child will be reviewing all the Word Wall words through various chants and activities.
