Hello Parents,
First of all we want to thank you for all the wonderful gifts we received. We could feel your love and appreciation. We hope you all had a wonderful winter break spending more time with the ones you love. The last couple of days were a nice transition into coming back to school. We know it can be a big adjustment for the children to come back to school after having nearly two weeks away from school. They did much better than what was expected. In fact, it almost seemed like they had not been away at all. They adjusted very nicely.
The big new themes for January will include Oceans for our biome study, fish for our biology study, and will do water experiments for physical science. As one of the elements of art we will learn about lines and study Pablo Picasso. We will spend time with Habit 4: Think Win Win as well as continue to work on individual lessons for each student.
As a reminder, there will be no school for the students on Friday, January 11. This is a professional development day for the teachers.
Thank you for your continued support. Have a great week.
Ms. Martha and Ms. Valerie
