We had a great time learning all about dinosaurs during the past two weeks. The children have learned about the different kinds of dinosaurs, what they ate and how big they were. They can easily name dinosaurs in our classroom collection as well as in the numerous classroom books and know exactly what their names are. Pretending to be Paleontologists has been a lot of fun too. The children especially enjoyed looking for fossils in our garden.
Our fun and fantastic theme for April is about Community Helpers. The children will be learning a wide variety of job. Ask questions like “What does he do?” “Where does he work?” Name all the tools a community helper needs to complete the job. Talking about what your children want to be when they grow up. Play dress up as Doctor and Firefighter.
Some of the activities that we have planned for the children :
o In conjunction with Earth Day on 22nd Apr, we will teach the children what we can do as part of the community and what we can do to take care of the Earth. Children are invited to bring trash from home daily to throw away into the correct recycling bin that we prepared.
o We would like to extend our understanding on jobs by taking a further look at the job that you do. Children are invited to bring a photo or two on Wed, 14th Mar for show and tell to the class of their parents at work.
o As we close our unit on Community Helpers, we will have our field trip to the Fire Station onWed, 28th April. Info and permission slip will be sent out soon.
