It's that time of year again folks: time to sign up for next year!
Next year brings some fun changes in time and activities available. I will be adding an outdoor messy easel and a listening center that the children can use during free time among other things. =)
In order to maximize the opportunity to get to know other children and combine for large group activities, I am leaving the 9:00 session and changing the 12:30 to a 10:30. The proposed schedule would go something like this:
9:00 - 12:00:
9:00 - Free time
9:30 - Circle Time
9:45 - Theme
10:15 - Snack
10:45 - Letter
11:15 - Combined Sharing
11:45 - Closing Circle
10:30 - 1:30:
10:30 - Free time
11:00 - Circle Time
11:15 - Combined Sharing
11:45 - Letter
12:15 - Snack
12:45 - Theme
1:15 - Closing Circle
Of course during the window of time that there will be all the children here, I will have another teacher on hand! This new schedule will work nicely because when one group is doing an indoor activity another will be doing an outdoor activity. This will also allow us to combine for parties/large group activities! I am really excited for this next year as I have some great new ideas to share with your children!
Of course registration is open to returning students FIRST! Please have:
Your registration form into me by March 4, 2010!
a. If you are a returning student you do not have to pay the $50 deposit.
b. If EITHER time would work for you do not select a preference. This way I can organize the children into groups that I think would learn well together.
Please look in your e-mail for a registration form!
THANKS!

February Newsletter

Where has time gone? I can not believe it is February already! As many of you have noticed we have started our sign in process. Each morning, as the children come in they will have to find their name on the table and trace it. This will give them a chance to practice writing their name daily as well as an opportunity to read not only their own name, but their friend's as well! I handed out copies to everyone last week - so make some copies and practice at home! This month we are going to get going on....
1. P = Pets. We will be talking about different types of pets and what having a pet entails. Parents are welcome to bring pets the last 10 minutes of class on Thursday February 4th! Snack will be Pizza.
2. Presidents and Valentine's Day Week. (There will be no lettered objects to bring to me.) The actual Valentines party will be Thursday February 11th. Each child should bring a Valentine for each of their 5 classmates.
3. Q = Quilts. We will be learning about how although we may just be one person, we can make a large difference! (Just as a piece of fabric is not much until combined with others to make a quilt.) Thursday February 25th each student can bring a Teddy Bear which will be used for a picnic on the quilts! Snack will be Quesadillas.
There will be no school the week of 15th to the 19th in observance of Presidents Day.
Book Order due Tuesday February 9th.
Your little ones continue to bring much joy, and I learn from them daily!
