Happy Summer my super-ubertastic preschool families!
I hope this finds you all well, rested and cool!!! What a hot one it has been so far! I keep hoping to have a cool day so that I can start back into my classroom but I think I will just have to suck it up and brave the heat;( After shutting the room down in June and our family vacation in the beginning weeks of July, I am now dusting off my computer to write up some "save the date" days to send out to you all. I miss my sweet little students so much! I have some great and exciting changes coming this school year.Our NEW class Bunny Rabbit "Fluffy":
Much to our family's sadness, our beloved rabbit Thumper died this summer. A week later, we found a sweet little lion-head bunny that someone had abandoned in our neighborhood. He was so skinny and sad but after lots of attention and as much food as he wants, Fluffy is doing wonderful. He will be our "in house" bunny in our classroom this year. He will stay in the room instead of traveling back and forth like Thumper did.Temporary Staff change coming:
My wonderful co-teacher, Mrs. Bloom, will be doing her student-teaching the first 15 weeks of school in Mrs. Bowman's third grade classroom here at St. Francis. After her 15 weeks of student-teaching are finished, she will re-join us in our preschool class (right around Christmas holiday) for the remainder of our school year. We send Mrs. Bloom many prayers for a wonderful student-teaching experience and wish her all the best during the beginning 15 weeks of this exciting school year. What an wonderful time for her!In the 15 week absence of Mrs. Bloom, Mrs. Diane Martin will join our preschool family as my co-teacher. Mrs. Martin comes to us with a wealth of educational experience. She recently finished a year as a co-teacher with Mrs. Susan Walsh, one of our wonderful kindergarten teachers here at St. Francis. Mrs. Martin is excited to be with us in our preschool. She will be a great asset to us here at SF Preschool. We welcome Mrs. Martin with open hearts and open arms!
Blog Updates for the upcoming school year:
I will be updating this blog on a bi-weekly basis for the remainder of the summer. For the upcoming year, I will be sending lots of reminders to subscribe to the blog. If you already get email notifications of updates, please disregard and have patience with these reminders. Thanks;)May you continue to have a blessed and safe summer holiday. I look forward to seeing you all very soon. God bless you all.
Educationally yours,
Mrs. Burd
