Happy Mother’s Day
Happy Mother’s Day!!! Thank you to all the moms who came to celebrate this special day with their child. They worked so hard on making your presents and practicing their songs. The video was too long to post, so I created a google folder with all the pictures and the videos. You can also upload any photos or videos that you have taken. You will notice several class selfies that were taken as we waited for the rest of the class to return. (P.S. Your children did make necklaces too, but my oven is a little funny and I burned them. SORRY! We will definitely make something for the end of the year.)
Our students are starting to make new friends during free flow Sunday. It is great to watch them practice their social skills. We also visited the airport for the first time. I had fun listening to the students make travel plans and choose destinations.
In centers this week we played the math movement game and got lots of exercise. We also watched Mo Willems stories online, read the Knuffle Bunny series and continued to practice identifying the beginning sounds in words.
Ms. Leslie did a lesson about penguins in the library. She used pebblego to make the lesson more interactive. Don’t forget the school has a pebblego account that you can access at home.
I presented our top IXL users a certificate for all the time they spend practicing and growing their brains. Congratulations to Minato, Miya Z., Mia D., Aanya, Karina, and Nia A.
Happy Birthday Alyza!!!
Lastly, Spring Break is finally here!!! YAY!!!! I have created a google photo album for you to upload pictures of what you will be doing over the break. Whether enjoying the beautiful weather here in Dubai or traveling across the world, please share what your littles ones are up to. Thanks!
