Monthly Highlights
Junior Kindergarten
May 2025
Dear Parents,
It is hard to believe that it is May! This school year has flown by very quickly! The children have grown so much, and we are proud of their accomplishments. Our goal continues to be to address the emotional, social, spiritual, artistic, academic, and physical needs of the children. As the school year ends and questions arise, please feel free to contact us.
Our theme this month is Our Beautiful World. We will learn that God made people the stewards of the Earth. It is our responsibility to care for the plants and animals He created. We will discuss various ways to protect the environment, the effects of pollution, and the importance of recycling. Other topics this month will include plants and seeds; an introduction to skip counting by tens; letters Y and Z; and a review of the alphabet. There will also be an introduction to sight words mom, dad, cat, dog, and you.
Our memory Bible verse is All things were made by God. John 1:3. Our Bible stories will include God Made a Beautiful Garden - Creation and God Frees His People. Our spiritual objective is to help the children understand that God created the world and everything in it for us to love and enjoy.
Yellow day for the letter Y will be May 7th. Wear as much yellow to school that you can.
Zoo day is for the letter Z on May 14th. Bring your favorite stuffed zoo animal to school. Please no other stuffed items that are not zoo animals.
The children will soon be practicing for their graduation programs. Mrs. O’Brien’s ceremony will be held on Tuesday, May 20, 2025. The ceremony will be at 7:00 p.m. and will take place in the Sanctuary. The children have worked very hard for this day, and we want to make it very special for them. They should come dressed in their “Sunday best.” The children should arrive 15 minutes before their scheduled program time. Please enter the main doors of the church with your child and drop them off in the hallway to the left of the sanctuary.
Our field day will be Wednesday, May 21st. We will be spending extra time outdoors. We have planned several activities for the children to enjoy. Please put sunscreen on your preschooler before sending him/her to school. The children will be treated to pizza for lunch from Little Caesars and a Fla-Vor-Ice popsicle from Adam Lamb. If your child cannot eat the pizza or popsicle due to allergies, you are welcome to send your own lunch and snack. Wednesday, May 21st will be the last day of school in the building. The children will bring their lunch to school and backpacks too, so they can pack up all their supplies to take home.
A letter will be sent home concerning the Legacy Park Picnic on May 22nd. The large pavilion has been reserved for the Adam Lamb families. Parents are encouraged to bring a picnic lunch and enjoy some playtime with their children and classmates. Mrs. O’Brien’s class is scheduled from 10:00 -12:30 at the park, Cool Time ice cream truck will be at the park from 11:30-12:30 to provide ice cream treats for the Adam Lamb children and their families.

An octopus swims in the ocean,
An octopus swims in the sea,
An octopus swims in the ocean;
The ocean is where he should be.

Swim, swim, swim, swim;
All of God’s creatures who live in the sea.
Swim, swim, swim, swim;
Octopus, the ocean is where you should be.
