Whew! I don't know about your sweet little ones, but I was tired after our awesome first week of preschool! What a wonderful job the students did adjusting to the first week of school...only just a few tears:) I want to thank all the parents for the great support for the little ones and for the teachers. We are going to have a stupendous year.
Just a few reminders.....
1. Please make sure your child has something to carry his/her snack in. Please do not feel obligated to purchase a lunch box as a brown paper bag, plastic shopping bag, or a lg. ziploc bag would be fine. Not only will this help with keeping spoons, food and drinks all together, it will also help backpacks stay cleaner when little hands forget to snap snack bags or push down drink tops.
2. Also, don't forget your child will need a folder to transport work as well as important school information to and from school. If this is a hardship, please let us know and we can assist with this.
3. Please check folders as we are sending important papers home regarding the upcoming field trip.
4. Please send back the following ASAP to school: a.) Apple Orchard Permission Form
b.) Driving Intention Form
** If you need another, please let Mrs. Bloom or I know. Thank You!!
5. Ask your lovely child about the books: The Kissing Hand and The Rainbow Fish. These were just a couple of the literature books we worked with this week. The Kissing Hand touched on how we feel the first day of school. The Rainbow Fish is touching story about friendships and most importantly, sharing and being selfless.
Seals loved the our starting song "Wak'in up is Hard to Do"- isn't this the truth!
Penguins learned a song called "I wish I had.." all about those we love.
Polar Bears learned some great songs too! I think they like our starting song called "Hello Neighbor" but they especially loved "Bubblegum"!
6. It is Mrs. Blooms birthday on Sunday 9/11. All Friday classes sang Happy Birthday to her
and she got to pick her favorite song to sing with the Polar Bear class...which of course is "Tooty tooty ta" a silly fun song. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MRS. BLOOM!
