Saint Andrew School:
Building a culture of life, and a civilization of love through faith and knowledge
Mrs. Russo's Pre-K 4 Classroom News.....
I can't believe we are just about at the end of our school year!!! The release of our classroom butterflies was a success! We enjoyed watching the incredible transformation from caterpillar to butterfly. :) Our last day of class will be Wednesday, June 7th. We will have our end-of-the-year closing at 9:00 am in the classroom and then immediately following we will have our end-of-the-year picnic at Dermond Field. The children are to report to school on this day at regular time. All are welcome to attend the closing show and picnic! Children must be accompanied by an adult while at the picnic. More information about this day will be sent out in the near future. Unfortunately there is no rain date for our picnic so let's hope for nice weather!!!
For the remainder of May our themes will be Zoo Animals, Dinosaurs, Ocean Animals, Transportation, and Summer Fun. We only have three more letters to go: Z, Y, and Q. After that we will be reviewing all of our letters. The children have worked very hard in their ABC Interactive Notebooks. We can't wait for you to see the final result! For our Ocean Animal theme, a visitor from the Adventure Aquarium will be coming to our classroom. We're excited to see what our visitor brings from the ocean!
In Religion, we will be focusing on our Blessed Mother Mary. Every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday we will take turns crowning our Mother Mary and reciting the Hail Mary. If at anytime during the month of May your child would like to bring in flowers (a single flower or a small bouquet), we will put them on our religion table by our Mary statue. Speaking of mothers... we are looking forward to our Mother's Day Tea on Thursday, May 11th!
On Tuesday, May 30th, we will be walking to Cocco's Pizza for a fun field trip. It is just a short distance away from the school. Please keep a look out for a permission slip. The pizza store will only be opened for us and the Pre-K 3 class. There is no need to pack a snack on this day since the children will be eating the personal sized pizza that they will be making. We will have juice for the children.
Also, there is NO SCHOOL on the following days... (Thursday) May 18th, (Friday) May 19th, and (Monday) May 29th.
Thank You and God Bless,
Mrs. Kellie Russo and Mrs. Nancy Light
