April




Spring Song 
Sung to: "Are You Sleeping?"
I see robins, I see bird's nests
Butterflies too, flowers too
Everything is growing
The wind is gently blowing
Spring is here, spring is here.

 
This is the most awaited season of the Pre-k's. They love to talk about spring - the flowers, trees, insects and almost everything about Spring. We, in the Pre-kindergarten will be learning about Spring and we are going to learn little facts about it. We are also going to learn about the different animals and insects you can see during Spring time. We also would like to learn about plants.


Spring also marks a new beginning, and we are also going to do more spring and Easter arts and crafts. We are continuously learning our letters and numbers. The Pre-K's little hands are very busy making and learning different stuff. 

Another thing to look forward is the St. Gerard Talent Show. We will be showcasing the students' different talents. 

We are very excited for this month. 

Reminders:
 
April 12 - Wear Pink (in support of Bullying Awareness)
April 14 - Good Friday No School
April 27 - St. Gerard Has Talent Show
April 24 - 28 - Scholastic Book Fair
 
 
Thank you!

March




March here we come!  The Pre-K's are having a really good time learning and having fun. 
We had a wonderful time during the Festival du Voyageur.  We play, we participated with the activities like the Portage/ Piggy back Ride, Tug-of-War (they had so much fun when they won against Miss Gilbert), enjoyed the Storytelling with Mrs. Pelleck, the Bead making with Miss Logan, the Dress Up Photo shoot with Mrs. Shade, the Canoe ride with Mr. Calvo and Mrs. Courcelles and of course the Sugar shack with Mr. Deejonkheere. It was then followed with a hearty snack.
February was “I Love to Read” month. The kids loved it when they started bringing out their favorite books and shared the story to the class. They were very eager listeners.

They are so into learning about alphabet and numbers. I can say that they are really good with letters and numbers.

We will be doing more arts and crafts and also learn about the Lenten Season, St. Patrick's Day, Easter and Spring. So definitely, the prek's have so much to offer in their plate this month. I am definitely sure that this month would be another fun but busy month. 

**Important Reminders:

·         Friday, Mar. 3  – Registration Packages due
