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. 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 6th. Wear as much yellow to school that you can.
Zoo day is for the letter Z on May 13th. 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 Sunday, May 17, 2026. The ceremony will be at 5:00 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.

Here are some fun ideas to try at home this month. Make some bright flowers by using paper plates, construction paper, and paint. Use twigs, leaves, and flowers as paintbrushes. The kids enjoy doing this one at school: Spread shaving cream on a tray to practice drawing letters, numbers, or shapes.
Here are the words to a fun song.
God’s Sea Creatures
Tune: My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean
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.
(Chorus)
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.
(Continue by substituting other sea creatures)

Our theme this month is Thank you God for Mommies and Daddies. We will focus on celebrating our parents this month. The children will be going over all their colors and shapes they have learned this year.
The week of May 5-7 will be Disney Week. Dress up in Disney attire each day of school.
Now that it is spring here are some fun flower ideas to try at home. Do a flower pot drop. Use a container (like a clean yogurt cup) and have your toddler drop colorful pompoms or flowers into it. Cut flower shapes out of paper and have your toddler match them to colored pots or mats. Freeze flowers in ice cube trays and let children melt them with warm water.
Field Day will be Thursday, May 14th. We will be spending extra time outdoors (Weather permitting). We have planned several field day activities for the children to enjoy, including the Bubble Bus so please pack an extra set of clothes in your child's backpack.
