March Newsletter

 We hope everyone enjoyed the mid-winter break.

We will be learning about the parts of the fish and the oceans of the world this month.  We’ll talk about and name all of the different oceans and investigate some shells and various ocean animals.  We are even planning to make our own Great Barrier Reef.  Our continent for the month will be Australia.  We will learn about various countries and animals of Australia.  The flags of Australia will be available for the children to color.  We will provide cooking projects that are common in Australia.

Easter Break is coming soon, be sure to sign up for daycare if you will be attending.  Sign up sheets are available on the bulletin board outside our classroom.  There is a half day on Thursday March 20^th with an 11:45 dismissal and no classes or daycare on Friday March 21^st.  Special daycare is available from Monday March 24^th through Friday March 28^th.  Daycare is available from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM.

December Newsletter

 Dear Parents,

We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Thank you to all the parents who came and also those who contributed to our Thanksgiving feast. The children were excited to share what they had made and very thankful that you could be there.

The weather is turning colder. Please send hats, snow pants, gloves and boots. Your child’s boots will be placed outside the door to our class on the boot rack. This will help keep the snow out of the classroom. Please label all of your child’s winter attire.

We are studying South America this month. We will learn about the animals that live there and various customs unique to that continent.  The Rainforest will be the focus of our science shelf for the month of December. 

We would like to celebrate Kwanza and Hanukah, so if there are any parents willing to assist us in a small presentation regarding these celebrations, please let us know.  

The Kindergarten Nativity play is on Tuesday December 18^th at 2:00.  The children have been preparing and sound great!  Kindergarten parents are invited to attend!

Our last day will be December 21st. School is dismissed at 11:45 AM.  Daycare is available.  If any children are leaving before the 21st, please let us know.  That day we will be having a small celebration and we would like to give our gift to them before they leave. 

Please pick up a hat, gloves or a scarf for our PTSA tree located in the Great Room.  You can also leave donations for SOS on the table between our classroom and the kitchen.    

Happy Holidays!

Miss Katie

Dear Parents,

The weather will be changing very quickly. Please remember to send your child with appropriate attire: hats, gloves and jacket. We will be going outside at least once a day. It is very helpful if you label all items sent to school.

The children are starting to settle into the routine of class. We would like to thank the parents for being patient during the changes. Your children are wonderful and we can’t wait to speak with all of you at conference time. A schedule will be posted for parents to sign up for a conference time.

This month we are talking about the continents, plants versus animals, and the parts of a leaf.  We are learning colors in sign language for the extended day children.

We have started show and tell on Friday mornings.  Your child may bring in something special (no toys please) to share with the group.  Thanks to all of our parent volunteers so far!  It’s great to have you in the classroom!  Enjoy the fall weather and we’ll see you all at school!

Thanks,

Miss Katie, Miss Rachel and Miss Padma   

 

*A great way to bring your child some added trust and responsibility at home is to move their cups, bowls and other dining utensils into a low cupboard so they can access them when they need to.*
