Family Learning Activities, 5/12-5/15

ß Create a May family art project to display in the classroom all month. The theme can be a special day or holiday in May (e.g., someone’s birthday, “May Day is Lei Day,” Mother’s Day, Memorial Day).
ß Find shapes in the world around you. Remember: A ____ is a ____. When you add some ____, it turns into a ____. Take a picture or draw what you see and bring it in to share with the class.
ß Experiment with shapes and designs using other materials. (In class we’re using pattern blocks, Play-doh, and Geoboards.)
ß Have Game Night and play board games as a family.
ß We’re going to listen to the Middle School Concert Band this week. Make your own instrument to share, or bring in a book about instruments (fiction or non-fiction) to share.
