Color Song Review. We will sing and spell colors, and find things that are the color of the day.
Shape Song: We will sing about a variety of shapes, identify them by pointing, naming, or selecting the correct shape on our iPad, and draw shapes on our display and in our journals.

Our GCISD In Home Trainer, Liesa Leach, shared this website with us to share with you. It has resources for families of children with disabilities of all ages and abilities.
Summer programs for students who are younger than Kindergarten age are VERY hard to find. Often therapy centers provide some summer "camps", so please check with therapy clinics in the area.
We are in need of disinfecting wipes to clean tables, toys, etc. If you are willing to send some in, we would really appreciate it!
***Reminders***
Continue to monitor your child's snack to make sure it is nut-free.
Please check your child's backpack and restock with pull-ups or diapers as needed. Please label all outerwear, snack containers, etc.
May 9-13th is STAAR testing week for the older grades. The campus is closed to all visitors.
