Week of September 10, 2018
Parents,
This week as we continue our peace lessons, we will focus on the body; particularly, the lungs for breath awareness, muscle awareness, and how the brain sends messages to the body through the nerves in the spinal cord. We will also begin learning about our mind and have an introductory lesson on our five senses and how they help deliver messages to the brain and mind. And then, next week we will look closer at each of the five senses.
We will begin our study on the globe, but we will first learn about “Concept of Representation” to help the children understand that an object or a picture stands for the real object being presented. We will also learn the differences between plants and animals, as well as continue to experiment with magnets. In art, we will learn about the primary colors and do art activities relating to those colors.
Please be aware that Thursday evening is back to school night for parents only from 6 to 8 pm. You may find more information about back to school night on the school blog. Thank you for your support.
Have a wonderful week!
Ms. Martha & Ms. Valerie
