Four of the six caterpillars survived and have successfully made their chrysalides! We will anxiously await their winged arrivals! We'll keep you updated...
Friday, April 22nd: One of the butterflies emerged from their chrysalis today!
Monday, April 25th: Two more! Still waiting on the fourth. I've been feeding them watermelon and pineapple slices.
Tuesday, April 26th: The last one came out today..too cold to let the butterfly go in the morning. The afternoon class let their butterfly go in the afternoon!! Bye, butterfly!
Thursday, April 28th: The morning class let their butterfly go!
Friday, April 29th: The last two butterflies were released today by the morning and afternoon classes..they grow up and fly away so soon!!
Last Thursday our Tuesday/Thursday preschoolers hosted their Art Show. They had a fun-filled day with a special guest, Chantal Marji, who helped them create their own paintings of nature in the classroom (pictures are shown).
Thank you to our room parents who supplied the classes with finger food for viewing our art and parents who came to visit.
We hope you enjoyed our show as much as we enjoyed putting it together!
- We mailed letters to our grandparent/Corner Stone penpals this past week! The MWF students will be taking a field trip at the beginning of May to Corner Stone.
- We planted zinnia flower seeds in our classroom. They are a few inches tall already!!
- Caterpillars are on their way to our classroom-via the US Postal service. My plan is to give them a nice home in our preschool. Hopefully, each class will have the pleasure of watching them break free of the chrysalis and setting them free outside.
- The atrium has been a happening place for us during this Lenten season-take the time to ask your child about what they have been learning. This past week was about Jerusalem-how it was a "walled" city, and Christ's death and resurrection. Next week-I will show them the Last Supper. You have super kids-I see the love of God through them all the time! Keep up the good that you do!
