Curriculum Notes: SEEDS

According to Ms. Kate, here's what's going on in the Seeds house:

MAY

1.) Song:  "Head, Shoulders, Knees & Toes"

Lots of videos to choose from, but this one was the creepiest

2.) Life Skill: Body Parts (identifying, accurately pointing to)

3.) Book: The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle

JUNE

1.) Song: Ring around the Rosie 

2.) Life Skill: Basic colors

3.) Book:  Planting A Rainbow by Lois Ehlert

From Ms. Kate: "I'd like the children to be able to hold hands and walk in a circle during "Ring around the Rosie."  I would like children to be able to point to or pick up items when asked questions like "Can you bring me the yellow ball?".  The book Planting A Rainbow would tie in with learning colors and its about the process of seeds growing into flowers which I think would be relevant to the season and Sunflower!"

ON A PERSONAL NOTE TO SEEDS PARENTS - 

You know when you go to a big, cheesy arena concert (for purposes of an example, we'll use Lionel Richie) and Lionel invariably asks from the stage, "Where are all my pretty ladies tonight?" And then there's a high-pitched squeal from half the audience?

When it comes to school events like Parent Forums and Family Dinners, I feel like if Lionel asked, "Where are my Seeds families tonight?" we'd hear crickets. 

Don't feel like you shouldn't participate because your student is "only" in the infant program. We'd love to have you! Love, love, love. Get involved now so we can form friendships that will last through our children's time together at the school. Lionel would want it that way.
