May Newsletter

Dear Parents,

This month, we’ll be learning about the solar system. Students will learn about the planets, what makes the Sun so hot, and why we have day and night here on Earth. Classroom activities will include constructing a model of the solar system and demonstrating the Earth’s rotation.


At home, take a few minutes with your child to look at the moon each night. Draw a picture every night and talk about how it’s changing. If you have the chance, try to watch a sunset or sunrise together as well. Is the sun really moving, or the Earth? Hopefully by the end of May we’ll know the answer.


Enjoy your child!
