What a busy month we had in March! Our students had such a blast learning about this month’s themes. Dinosaurs are a very popular topic, so we were all very excited to learn about them for in the classroom. We discussed the three kinds of dinosaurs: carnivore, herbivore, and omnivore. Some of our older students were able to carve out their own dinosaurs from fossilized eggs in the classroom. Students made a lot of dinosaur art and shared which one was their favorite. We also focused on the continent of Africa this month. In class, students discussed the many traditions, dances, and cultures that have come from this beautiful continent. We looked at where Africa was on the map and created our own continents out of various mediums. This month we also focused on germs and the importance of handwashing. Students practiced their handwashing skills in the practical life section of their classroom.

In celebration of Dr. Seuss’s birthday, this month was Dr. Seuss month! We hosted a spirit week. Students came dressed in fun outfits for every day of the week and brought in their favorite Dr. Seuss book.  We also celebrated St. Patrick’s Day this month! Students came to school dressed all in green. We made lots of rainbow and shamrock art, some of our classes even made their own hats for the special day. Students enjoyed a yummy snack of green foods like cucumbers, green grapes, honeydew, and green cookies. It is always so much fun to see all the school spirit from our growing students.

In April, we will be learning about Islands and Volcanoes. Students will travel the map and learn about Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands. We will discuss what an Island is and how they were formed so long ago. We will also be learning about volcanoes and how they work. We can also look forward to our Easter and spring celebrations. We will be hosting an egg hunt for all our students and can’t wait to see everyone searching for those eggs!
