We have been learning a little about Africa and a lot about African animals. We have learned about lions, gorillas, giraffes and ostriches. We learned some sign language when we talked about gorillas. We read a book about Koko, a gorilla in a zoo who communicated with the staff through sign language. Ask your child if they remember the sign for ball and cat. We will learn about a few more this week.

After break, we will study the solar system and space. The children get excited about this unit.

Thank you for attending conferences. We hope you have a relaxing break!
