This week, we learned about what living things need and began our study of plants! We started an experiment to see what plants need to survive and will continue to observe our growing seeds over the next few weeks. We also planted radish seeds that we hope to see growing soon! We learned about the parts of a plant, the important job each part does, and the life cycle of a plant. Here are some picture highlights from the week:
Sorting living and non-living things!
Playing in our garden table!

Spring Field Trip: We will be visiting Frederick Meijer Gardens on Thursday, June 7th for a Singing with the Sculptures Tram ride! Students will have the opportunity to participate in rhythms, sounds, rhymes, and raps as they roll along learning about the sculptures through fun and familiar songs! After the tram ride, we will have time to explore the Children's Garden at Meijer Gardens. I posted a sign-up sheet for drivers in the hallway or you can email me with the number of children you can drive if you'd like to join in on the fun! The field trip costs $6 per student (will be charged to their WECC preschool account) and $4 per adult (please give $4 cash or a check made out to WECC prior to the field trip to Ms. Katie).
Preschool Picnic for Families: Please join our class from a year end picnic to reminisce, create summer plans and say goodbye to friends on Wednesday, June 13th from 12:30-1:15. Bring a picnic lunch, and we will provide drinks and cake!
Last Day of PM Preschool: The last day of PM preschool will be Wednesday, June 13th. This differs from the EGRPS last day of school due to childcare being open for ages Preschool-5 in the afternoon on Thursday, June 14th.
