Happy March!! So glad to see it come in as a lamb after the yucky weather we had in February. I sure hope the nicer weather is here to stay! With a new month brings all kinds of new things: themes, bible story, bible verse, new shape and color and of course new letters to learn. March is full of fun for sure! This entire month the children will be celebrating God’s gift of animals: farm, zoo/jungle and pets. Chapel time is Noah and the bible verse the students will learn is “Noah listened and obeyed God.” Genesis 6:22. The children love the story of Noah – I have to agree it is one of my favorites.

In our wonderful specials classes the children are having a blast!! In music they are singing and dancing with Ms. Mary Lee and Ms. Terri their favorite songs to prepare for the spring program that will be coming up in May. In centers lab if your flower delivery was late or didn’t arrive you will have to wait until next year because we have closed the flower shop to make room for the science lab. For the next couple months the students will have fun making and creating things as well as exploring bugs, both living and non-living and making things grow. We will also have a vet clinic for the animals we will also be studying. We also have some very yummy activities during our cooking time such as an edible rainbow. It’s always so exciting to see what the children will come up with!In computer lab we are continuing with home row and our progress is great! In addition to that we are working on rotations with all three of our software programs (literacy, math, and science). The children can get to the main menu by themselves and are well on their way to logging off and on independently!! I see some future techies in our midst!

Next week we will have a very talented vendor here by the name of Tricia Ryan. She makes beautiful necklaces and if you are on Facebook you can find her page under Tricia Ryan Studio. She will be here next Wednesday, March 9th and Thursday, March 10th. Susan and I both have a couple of her necklaces and just love them! They make great gifts and are very cost efficient.

Please make sure to check out the blog for pictures from this school year’s events such as the bike-a-thon, valentine parties, Q & U’s wedding and the dentist visit. You can find as at www.suncreekkids.blogspot.com. The pictures are also posted on the Suncreek Children’s Development Center fan page on Facebook. I try to upload event pictures as soon as I can. Enjoy!
