April Theme: Pets

Our April Autor is David Shannon. He is well known for his NO, David  series but he also has a book called Good Boy, Fergus! Our April theme will be based on this and other books about pets. Kids love to talk about things that are going on at home and since pets are a very important part of many families we thought it would be a fun theme. We will be talking about how to care for animals, different kinds of pets and we will have a service dog visit to share how they help people. 

A few ways your family can participate:

• We will be making a photo album like we did with the Pete the Cat's Adventures. Please bring in (labeled on the back with their name) 3x5 or 4x6 photos of your families pets. If your family doesn't have a pet and your child wants to bring in one of them with grandmas cat or aunties dog that is welcome too! It would be great if every child had a photo in the album. 

• If you want to bring in your pet to share we will have a calendar sign up sheet out front after Spring Break. 

• Bring in books that are pet related.

• We will be making a pet picture collage and will need magazine pictures of various pets.

• We are also collecting paper egg cartons (or flats if you happen to get eggs from Costco)  for a caterpillar to butterfly project.
