Hi Families,
Last week-We made some super fun art projects , the spider hat was a favorite. We learned some things about bats and spiders and talked about real things and pretend. You have some great eaters! These kids loved the pumpkin pie we made. Then on Friday we got invited to eat snack with the Butterfly class and enjoyed pumpkin bars. We welcomed a new friend to our class, his name is VJ. The kids are excited to have a new friend in our classroom. Friday is also a day when we are learning spanish from Teacher Caroline, if you would like to add fridays for your Busy Bee , we have room.
This week-Its going to be a busy week, this time of year gets the kids a bit excited. We are going talk more about real and pretend. make some monsters and do some creative writing stories about them. We’ll be finishing up the month with a few more Halloween activities and then of course our party on Friday. There are still quite a few things left to sign up for on our party snack list. Check it out in the hallway.
Fundraisers-LAPSK is a non profit preschool, fundraising is an important piece to our program. Our current fundraisers are Usbrone book efair, scholastic books,
Family photos- We have a parent-photographer who is offering Family Pictures to the first 4 or 5 families that sign up. She will donate 100% of the funds back to us!Pictures will be $150 for a 30 minute session on 11/8 from 9-11. A flier will go into cubbies, first come first serve.
Thank you for supporting our school and making it a great place for kids to grow and learn!
Trunk or treat-The Church is sponsoring a fun family event called “Trunk or treat” today, Sunday October 26th. The Parking lot will be filled with folks and their decorated “Trunks” for your kids to trick or treat at. LAPSK will have a trunk and the teachers will be dressed in costumes.
Classroom Halloween party-The Busy Bee class will have its party on Friday, October 31st. The kids can come to school in their costumes(Non-scary and no weapons). We will be walking across the street to Kindred to parade through and show the grandmas and grandpas how great we look in our costumes. Then we will have some party snacks and play some fun games.
Fall parent/Teacher conferences-On November 6th there will be no class as we take time to have parent/teacher conferences. This is a great time to talk about how your child is adjusting to our classroom and to discuss goals for the rest of the school year. There is a sign up sheet for a time in the hallway.A paper will be coming home for you to let me know of questions or concerns you have that you would like to discuss at conference time. If the days/times set up don’t work out for your family, please let me know and we can figure out another time/day. Thanks in advance for taking the time to meet and help give your Busy Bee the best school experience possible. I would love to be able to meet with everyone, so please sign up!
Sick kids- The cold/flu season is upon us and we want to keep our classroom as germ free as possible. We will be disinfecting and cleaning on a daily basis. You can help by having your Busy Bee wash hands before coming into class and keeping them home if they are showing signs of illness. We would like to keep track of illness, so giving the office a quick call to let us know or sending me a text or email would be helpful. Thanks for helping us keep a healthy environment to play and learn in.
Classroom Volunteering: Now that we have been in school almost a month, most kids have settled in. If you would like to volunteer in class and come see what your Busy Bee is doing, we would love to have you. I usually have some easy task that needs done, repairing books or prepping for upcoming activities. Your time in class is very helpful and you get a chance to see what our day is like and how your child is interacting. There is a sign up sheet in the hallway for dates/times. Thanks in advance for your support.
Contact info: Please feel free to contact me if you have questions or concerns. I am fine with a text or a call or you can email. I am here to help you and your child have a great school year and feel honored that you have chosen us for your family’s preschool experience.
