Dear Mariquitas Parents,

This week we will continue learning about the human body and its functions. We have scheduled exciting learning activities related to this theme that will allow us also to continue strengthening fine and gross motor, cognitive-sensory and language skills:

• Work with sensory tables.
• Insert geometric shapes in a container.
• Color a drawing of the parts of the body.
• Try to pile on paper cups.
• Play with friends in the sand box.

Thank you for letting us play such an important role in your child’s life.

Best Regards,

Miss Jeanette
