What we are learning?

Dear Parents,
 We hope you are having a beautiful week. This week the children will learn everything about being little creators and we will encourage children to be creative.
 We have scheduled learning activities related to this theme to continue strengthening gross and fine motor skills, language and socio-emotional skills so children can continue learning through experiences. Children will participate in creative activities to create objects using recycled material. Children will use paints, paper, carton boxes, etc.
 Thank you for letting us play such an important role in your child’s life and we hope you have a great weekend.
