During the month of April, the children studied Henri Matisse in
art. We painted with a plunger. In practical life, we worked on
whisking, pouring using a teapot, tweezing and beading to strengthen
our fine motor and life skills. The caterpillars arrived in our
classroom. We are learning about the life cycle of the butterfly.
We discussed and celebrated Earth Day.
In May, we continue to observe the lifecycle of the butterfly.
