Busy Bee Newsletter For April 27-May 1

Hi Families,
Last week-It was a great week celebrating the earth we live on, the kids learned about recycling and why its important, we talked about different ways to help make our world better and we had an awesome lesson about worms from Teacher Amber. We finished off the week by eating dirt cups, a yummy snack we made to learn about different layers of the ground below. 
This week-The next few weeks we are going to be learning all we can about the Butterfly. We have our cup that has the caterpillars in it that we are watching. They have already changed from tiny to bigger and now we will watch for the next change. As we learn about the changes we have lots of fun art and learning activities planned. If your child has something to share related to our learning about caterpillars/butterflies(Book, toy, etc.) that they would like to share, they may bring it any time.
I(Teacher Kim) will be out of class from Thursday this week through May 8th. I will be having some minor surgery on my knee, but I am planning on getting back into class as soon as possible. Teacher Amber will be leading the class and have assistant help from Shannon. I will be talking to the kids about being gone and assure them that I’ll be back and that they will do everything just like always. Any questions or concerns may be addressed with Amber during the time I’m away. Thanks for your support and cooperation.
Reading groups- Our group reading time is going good. The kids are excited for the chance to take home their folders and “read” to you at home. Please remember that every child progresses at their own speed. These reading groups are an intro to what to expect in Kindergarten. We want to get a good positive feeling about reading and so we want to encourage any progress. Thank you for helping get materials back to school each week, thats a huge help.
May Field trip-Our school will be attending a play on Tuesday, May 19th. We will be seeing “Seussiscal Jr.” presented by Journey Theatre. It will be at Fort Vancouver High School at 9:30 Am. Tickets are $6 per person and can be paid to me in the classroom or in the preschool office. As always with field trips, parents are responsible for transportation and supervision of their child. Watch for a sign up sheet to let us know if you/your Busy Bee will be joining us.If this is not your child’s regular day to come to school, you are still welcomed and encouraged to come. There will be no class that day.
Gerbils-The classroom pets are in need of some families to take care of them over the weekends for the rest of the school year. They are easy to keep, no handling is required or cage cleaning. The sign up sheet is in the hallway.
Kindergarten orientation-As we roll into spring , be aware of when the Kindergarten orientation is for the school your child will attend in the Fall. Most schools have one in April/May to get families ready for what to expect and give the kids a chance to see the big kid school and gain some familiarity with the building/staff. You can contact the school or check the districts website for date/times. Let me know if you have any questions about this next step in your child’s learning experience.
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.  Remember that each family is required to do 2 hours of volunteering per child during the school year.
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.

This week-We will be wrapping up our spring theme with some earth day projects and talking about taking care of the planet. We’ll have our cooking project for the month on Thursday and Friday, when we make edible “cups of dirt”. The kids have been watching their seeds grow and we will be sending those home for planting in the ground. We will also walk across the street to Kindred to sing to the Grandmas and Grandpas on Wednesday.
We will be continuing the lose change drive for Childhood cancer research this week. We would love to fill our bucket with change so have the kids bring in those pennies!

*Important-The elevator in the building will be out of order this week as they wait on the replacement part to repair it. Please remember that the elevator is for strollers, wheelchairs or folks that cannot do the stairs. Kids should never be on it without an adult and we would encourage you to have your kids with you, using the stairs before and after school. Thanks for your help and sorry for the inconvenience during repairs this week.
This week-We have a very busy week back to school! It is our schools annual celebration of children we call “The week of the young child”. It will be full of special guests and snacks each day. Also we will have a “Theme” each day to show our school spirit! Here is the run-down: Monday-Silly hair Tuesday-Silly socks/silly hair Wednesday-Hat day Thursday-Stripes and dots Friday-Favorite color day. Have your Busy bee join us in the fun and wear the theme of the day.
We will also continue on with our regular classroom activities and talk about Earth day, how to keep our planet green and growing. We will do an activity about recycling and why its important. We would like to create some recycled art and could use some clean, not to big items that you may have around the house(plastic,paper,cans,lids,boxes, etc..) We will be planting some corn and beans and talking some more about what they need to grow.
Reading groups- 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.

With your ticket you will get dinner/drink and a coupon for bowling(to be used with your family at the next visit). This is a grown-up only evening. We have so many great silent auction items, you are sure to get a great deal and support our school all at once. You can get a ticket from the preschool office or from me in the classroom. Be sure and check out our classroom baskets and the other baskets that will be up for silent auction all week until the event on Saturday night, they will be up by the preschool office. There will also be a canvas that the kids created that will be up for silent auction all week until Friday at Noon. It will be outside our classroom. 
This event/auction this year will be raising funds for a new outdoor sign,a fantastic piece of equipment for the playground, as well as supporting our scholarship program.

Busy Bee Newsletter For March 30-April 3

Hi Families,
Last week- Spring weather and growing flowers was on our agenda last week. We did some great learning about wind with an experiment where we used our own wind to blow objects. We made kites and used our imagination to make pictures of what we see in the clouds. The kids all brought home their flower reports to work on at home. They should bring them back when they have learned about their flower and made a picture of it. They will tell the class what they have learned and then we’ll put them in their portfolio.
Little Acorn preschool and Kindergarten was voted “Best preschool” of clark county by the Columbian newspaper! We are so excited about this honor and have been getting a lot of interest on Facebook about our school. You can check out all the winners http://bestofclarkcounty.com/winners/2015.
This week-We will keep with our spring flower theme and do some fun art projects about flowers this week. We will also make rainbow cake this week, as last week it did not fit into plans, so cooking on Mon/Tues. Hopefully at the end of the week we will go on a “Looking for spring” walk around our school, if we get a day without too much rain. The kids are going to plant some seeds that they’ll bring home to watch for sprouting and for your family to plant when they are ready.
*Next week April 6-10 will be Spring break and there will be no school.
Reading groups- 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. I’d love to get your feedback on this activity and how your child is doing with the material at home. It helps me know if they need a bit more to do or maybe bring things down a notch and simplify. Thank you so much for the support.
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-Tickets are on sale for our Fun Auction night at Big Al’s on April 18th from 5-8pm. With your ticket you will get dinner/drink and a coupon for bowling(to be used with your family at the next visit). This is a grown-up only evening. We need some more help with the auction baskets that the Busy Bee Class is doing. Our themes are  “Superhero basket” and a “local Craft Beer Basket”. If you have not contributed to either of these but are planning to, we need all items by March 30th.
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.

Busy Bee Newsletter For March 16-20

Hi Families,
Last week-We wrapped up time and money learning last week. I love to see when kids start thinking about things and getting a little bit of understanding, just the tip of the iceberg so  to speak.

I just love this time of the school year! Be sure and read further down about reading groups and what a busy next few weeks we have.
This week-We couldn’t get through this week without doing a few fun activities that celebrate St. Paddy’s Day! So we will learn a fun rhyming song,count and hunt for leprechauns. We will also have a fun science discovery activity with Christina(Ben’s Mom) all about rocks and formations.
This week we are creating some fantastic art to display at our Art show/Family breakfast this Saturday, so be sure and plan on joining us!
The Busy Bee kids have shown some interest in flowers and growing things, which is great for this time of year and our early springtime happening. So for the few weeks we are going to explore flowers/springtime/growing. We will be planting some seeds, learning about what plants need to grow and even doing a “report” on a flower! Watch for more in the next few weeks.

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.

It starts right in front of Hough Elementary school and goes in a loop through the neighborhood and onto main street then back to the school. It is a very easy walk and strollers are welcomed. Please consider coming with your family and showing support for our school by joining us in the parade. As always, parents are responsible for transportation and supervision of their children during these events.

Busy Bee Newsletter For March 9-13

Hi Families,
Last week-We talked about Money last week. The names of the coins and their value. We did some creative writing about what we would save our money for and drew pictures of it. The letter sharing bags were a big hit, we will try to keep that in our weekly plan.
This week-We are going to keep with our time and money learning this week. We will be making clocks so we can start to get familiar with the parts of a clock and how they help us as we move through our day. We will be sorting daytime activities and nighttime activities during a group time. Our creative writing will be about “My Favorite time of day” as the kids give some thought to the different parts of their day. Reading groups will start this week and continue until the end of May. We go outside every day that it is not raining, so please help your Busy Bee to have the best clothes/jacket/shoes for the weather of the day.
Reading groups- 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.

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!
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.  Remember that each family is required to do 2 hours of volunteering per child during the school year.
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.
