Distance Learning

Cylinder lesson

Friday, May 1st


Then listen to my listen about cylinders. At the end, I will ask your child to go on a hunt for cylinders. Have your child bring their examples of cylinders to our Zoom meeting at 11:00. You do not need to put them on FlipGrid today! :)


  • Phonics - Pick one of the pages that say "Spring Flowers Alphabet Matching" in your May packet and have your child write the lowercase or uppercase letter that is missing. They can color if they like!


  • Religion- Listen to the story "If Jesus Lived Inside My Heart." We listened to this story in the beginning of the year and the kids loved it. Ask your child to think about how the characters in the story were acting like Jesus. How can they act like Jesus?

Thursday, April 30th


  • April Poem - It's the last day for our April Poem. I can't believe it!


  • Math - Have your child watch the video of Mrs. Rusnak teaching about cones. Once they watch the video, I instructed them to go on a hunt around their house to find a cone and share it with the class on FlipGrid. We are going to make a chart with all the different cones we find! Please help your child share their cones on Flipgrid here....https://flipgrid.com/rusnak

Then log onto Starfall.com and choose the "Geometry and Measurement" then go to the button that says "2D/3D Sort"


  • Phonics - Find the page "Catching Bugs: Numbers or Letters" in the May packet and help your child decide if it is a number or a letter. Cut and glue them in the correct jar. Once you start them off, they should be able to complete this on their own.


  • Read-Aloud - Your child can watch the video of the "Very Hungry Caterpillar" read by me :). See if they remember the life cycle of a butterfly!
  • Religion - Mrs. Sicker showed me this video years ago and the children love it. It is calming and quiet and helps us to remember that God will never leave our side. No matter what happens he is our strength and our rock. Find a quiet, calm place for your child to watch. We used to turn the lights off. They are captivated by this. I miss your children with all my heart!
