Hi Families,
Last week we learned a lot about having healthy bodies, washing hands and drinking water.The Morning class got a visit from Dr. Suzie who talked to us about keeping healthy teeth. The afternoon class gets their visit from the dentist this week on Thursday. We will keep with the theme of health and bodies as we talk about exercise, eating healthy food and getting sleep. We are going to be making healthy smoothies on Mon/Tues and do an activity with clocks and telling time. The morning class got to “Talk” to our friend Charlotte on the computer on Friday. She and her family have been in Argentina for the last few months and are coming back to the Busy Bee class in March. She has sent us a package that we are excited to get and the kids got to ask some questions about what its like there in Buenos Aries.
This Friday night is another Family Fun night here at LAPS. This month we are celebrating Dr. Suess and his Birthday. There will be birthday cupcakes,face painting,crafts and a dance party! Everyone is invited and everything is free, so come on out @ 5:30 to join the fun.
Reading groups will start next week.They will be on Mon/Tues each week during work time in small groups. The kids and I will “read” a book together and then they will bring that book home to read to/with you. It will come home in a folder along with a game or worksheet to do at home. The next school day they should bring the folder back to school with everything inside. Each week they will get new material sent home to work on. If the folder is not returned before the next reading group, they still participate in the reading group time, but aren’t getting to take home anything until the folder has been returned. I have a limited amount of readers that go home and really need them for the next group. Thanks for your cooperation with this and for helping make this an exciting and important part of your child’s school experience.
March will be here before you know it and we are hoping to get a jump on our classroom action basket. The AM class is putting together a “Date night” basket. There is an info sheet out in the hallway to let you know the items needed or if you want to donate money towards the basket. The Afternoon class will be doing a basket with a family “Get moving” theme, watch for an info sheet about that. The Auction/Dinner is Saturday March 29th. Watch for ticket info coming soon.
Mark your calendars for Monday March 17th and join Little acorn preschool as we celebrate St. Paddy’s Day and our community. We will be walking in the Hough neighborhood parade. All little acorn families are welcome to come walk with us. Strollers and wagons are welcome and lots of green decorations! We have been doing this for several years and it has always been a fun event. More info about time/meeting place to come in the next few weeks.
Please let us know if you have question or concerns. We are here to help your child and family have a positive school experience and feel supported. Thanks for the privilege of being a part of your child's learning process.
