3-7 de mayo


¡Hola Familias!

We had a busy, full, EXCITING week to visit Bill's Greenhouse, celebrate Cinco de Mayo, and enjoy Tulip Time! I'm sure you heard from your child how fun (and yes, tiring!) Wednesday was. In case you didn't get a chance to tune in or watch the video of our performance, check it out below!



I am so PROUD of the kids for their hard work and perseverance through four performances. Pine Ridge, South Side, and the Forest School were all amazed at how much our little ones know, and it was a privilege for us to share a bit of culture and excitement with them. 

We were also able to enjoy a short parade and Dutch dance performance at the high school on Wednesday afternoon! Talk about a full day!

Here is a brief summary of what we've been learning this week:

Reading / Lectura: We've been reviewing our high frequency words, the letter "ll", and practicing reading with our new whisper phones!

Writing / Escritura: We finished our nonfiction animal books, complete with a table of contents. Ask your child to share it with you at home! It was a fun introductory research project for them.

Math / Matemáticas: We've been studying forming numbers as well as the parts of numbers by playing games and doing activities.

Bible / Biblia: This week we learned how Jesus loved to be with children, and how we should all be like children when we put our trust in Him. We also wrapped up our unit on Jesus' miracles, or milagros. We will spend some time learning about His

parables next!

Immersion Tip of the Week

Listen to some música in Spanish this weekend! We've really enjoyed listening to 123Andrés in our classroom this year. Music is a great way to learn new language!
