Hi Families,
Last week-The Busy Bee’s are having a great time “Shopping” in our classroom store, we’ll keep it up again this week. We have had some good conversations about healthy bodies and have talked about healthy food and junk food.
Family Fun night was awesome, we had lots of families come out and celebrate Dr. Seuss with us. We love to see everyone and enjoy watching our school community come together and support our kids. If you were not able to come this time, mark your Calendar for our Family Breakfast and art show later this month on Saturday the 21st.
This week-We are going to be wrapping up our healthy bodies learning with a fun cooking project on Monday and Tuesday. We will be making an “edible rainbow” and then learn how to eat a rainbow everyday. Hopefully we will encourage trying some new foods and thinking about what foods do for our bodies.
We will also be introducing our unit on Money and Time this week. We will be talking about the names of the different coins and will be doing counting and sorting activities. We will be learning about clocks and what the hands do on them and talk about different times of the day.
We will be doing some letter sharing once again. This time the kids are bringing home a “Letter sharing bag”. This bag needs to come back to school on the next school day with something that begins with the letter on the bag. We will reuse these bags, so returning them to school in a timely manner will be important.
Reading groups-We are getting ready to begin reading groups starting March 9th. Your Busy Bee will be bringing home a folder with a book in it that we have read as a small group. At home we would like you to have your child”read” this book to you and help them complete any worksheets or games that are in the folder. Then All materials need to be returned to school. Everyone will do one reading group a week. Your support of this activity will be important to how much your child gets out of it. Please take time to do the reading,game or work in the folder and then help return it to school.
Fundraisers-LAPSK is a non profit preschool, fundraising is an important piece to our program.We are hopeful that with a variety of fundraisers your family will find one that is the right fit for you and you can help support our fantastic school. Our current fundraisers are Fred Meyers gives back to schools! Go to https://www.fredmeyer.com/topic/community-rewards-4 to register your rewards card and give back to Little Acorn Preschool and Kindergarten. And Shoparoo.com that is any easy way to earn money for our school right on your smart phone.
LAPSK Auction Night-Mark your Calendars for Saturday April 18th and make your plans to join us for the LAPSK auction/dinner at Big Als. We will be putting together an auction basket as a classroom for the silent auction. The Basket themes will be a “Beer Basket”(for the adults) and a “Super hero Basket” for the kids. The sign up sheets are out in the hallway. If you would like to donate some $$ instead of an item for the basket, thats great too. We will do the shopping for you. Thanks so much for your support!
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.
Volunteering: 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. 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.
