The Stars Are Shining!

I have several pictures I want to post. However, I thought let's have you be surprised when you come in this Thursday night for Parent Night. The room is started to get filled up with beautiful work done by your child. The children are learning the layout of the room, the routine and the rules. We are still working on NO running and inside voices, but it's starting to set in. Remind your child to have a GREEN DAY!

This week we start our Special Friend of the Week. Our first friend is Olivia. Olivia loves to tell great stories about her friends and her favorite Star Wars characters. She also enjoys drawing us wonderful pictures that she always wants us to make "2" of so one can stay at school and one can go home. Friends of the week should bring their "me bags" back on Thursday. I sent a bag and directions home roughly 1 week ago.

Next Tuesday is our field trip. Obviously all children who pay are able to stay the full day. Half day parents should pick up at 3pm. Be sure to send a disposable lunch and drink. We can't have reusable water bottles or thermos' that day.

One last note is regarding illness. If your child has a fever or is throwing up, they must be fever free for 24 hours before returning. If you child seems very weak, sick, please evaluate whether or not to send them. We have a lot of germies going around and we want them all to feel better. Encourage them to cough into their elbows, use tissues, hand sanitizer and....no nose picking. "EWWW, I can't believe Mrs. Tanya put that in here" right? However, it is a habit and they need to be gently reminded to stop for nose bleeds and most importantly germies.

Thanks so much and I look forward to seeing you all on Thursday night at 7pm.
