AT HOME LEARNING 

As you all already know school will be closed from March 16ththrough April 20th, with that said we will be doing our best to have activities for you to do at home with your child if you chose to do so! I will be updating this blog daily on school calendar days, please be sure to check back for updates! I will be uploading teacher recommend schedules and activities related to the topics we would normally be discussing in school. Most importantly, I miss my babies soooo much!! I can’t wait to see them all April 20th. In the meantime, stay well! If you need anything, please do NOT hesitate to contact me through e-mail-jdimperio@stlucys.org or through our remind app!  At Home Teacher Recommended Daily Schedule

DAILY CIRCLE TIME ROUTINE
Every morning at school we have circle time where we go over the calendar – month (how many months in a year), day of the week (how many days in a week), the year and finish with today is (ex. Today is Wednesday, March 19th, 2020). During circle time we also review the weather, season, letters, numbers and the current Unit which is Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. We also have the children practice writing their first and last name by signing into school daily. I would encourage you to continue these practices with your child daily. If you would like you could practice the songs we sing in class with your child, they will be linked below!
