Dear Pre-K Parents,

Welcome back from winter break!  I hope you were all able to enjoy some family time.  As we return, we will continue with our animal theme.  We have learned about pets, zoo animals, farm animals, and jungle animals.  This week, we will learn about bugs/insects, review letters with diagonal lines such as Nn and Vv, as well as work on letters Ee, Ii and Tt.  In our social emotional curriculum, we will be learning about fair ways to play.  

On Tuesday, we will have our February birthday celebration.  This Wednesday, February 26th, is Ash Wednesday.  This marks the 1st day of Lent.  We will attend school Mass in the auditorium at 8:15am.  Mass is open to anyone that would like to attend. Please have your child at school early so they may use the bathroom before we leave for Mass.  We will leave just after 8am so we can have time to get seated.   Ashes will be distributed after Mass.  Lent is a season of reflection and preparation before the celebration of Easter.  During this time, we will be learning about Lent as well as Lenten/Easter traditions, and we will also be learning about the stations of the cross.  

I will be assessing the children in preparation for parent teacher conferences.  If you would like to have a conference, please see the classroom bulletin board for sign ups.  If the days/times do not work for you, please let me know. I am happy to accommodate you as best as I can.  

If you have any questions, please contact me at veronica.jasso@olmlancers.com

Thank you, 
Mrs. Veronica
