St. Clair Skippers:

Happy Friday Families!!!! It's Spring Break!!! ๐ŸŽ‰ This week we have been learning about Spring and making eggs. We used watercolor paints and painted what we thought was just a white egg... But turned out it had shapes hidden in it!! We got to use whipped cream and food coloring to dye plastic eggs, that was so much fun! We got to color and put stickers on bunnies and eggs on the table. Friday we got a pajama and movie day! The Easter bunny even hid some eggs in our room for us to find with treats in them for us. We had so much fun!! We got to watch a movie and have snacks during the movie too! When we come back we will be learning about flowers and the week after we get our butterflies! We hope you all have a relaxing and fun spring break! See you April 6th. Ms. Alicia and Mrs. Amanda

Happy Friday Families๐Ÿ˜Š This week our theme was โ€œEaster โ€œ and we reviewed the letter K . During circle time, we focus on cognitive, social-emotional, and language development. We read multiple stories from our library this week. We reviewed the alphabet, numbers 1-10, shapes, colors, and the date and weather for the day. The children get opportunities to engage with the circle time material as well as each other. We have been in the gym riding bikes, running obstacle courses, kicking and throwing balls & having a blast. For art this week we made bunny rabbits and colored Easter eggs . Next weekโ€™s theme will be โ€œSpringโ€, and we will be reviewing letter โ€œLโ€. Have a fantastic weekend! ๐Ÿค— Ms. Skye & Ms. Daniele โญ๏ธ

Happy Friday and happy reading as March is reading month! We made it through another week of fun with Easter. This week week we colored plastic eggs and colored with crayons and markers. We worked our fine motor skills with pop-itโ€™s, tape pulling, saving the stars and building blocks We continued with circle time, reading ABC, 123, and colors, and a song to welcome all the children for the day. The children are quickly picking up on simple sign language that we are learning, such as book, more, please, mom, dad, etc. We worked on our gross motor skills this week, playing with balls, bubbles, music, and dancing to our favorite songs. We are still working on washing hands and transitions. We hope you have a great weekend and break and we will see you all bright and early Monday morning when we come back. Happy Spring Break and Easter. Enjoy the time with your littles. Miss Angel, Miss Jenna, Mr. Cris.
