Hello Parents,
Friday, September 27 is an Early Release Day for Professional Development. All AM students will come to school 8:30-10:30. All PM student will come 11:00-1:00.
Just a reminder that we go outside everyday for recess, with the exceptions of thunder and lightning, bad air quality days, and when the temperature is “feel like” 20 degrees or below. Please provide your child with clothing appropriate for changing weather conditions.
Please look for the information and permission slip for the upcoming “Field Experience ” to Oaklawn Park on October 4. Keep the front page to refer back to and sign and return the back page with your child before October 4. Your child will not be able to participate if we don’t have the permission slip returned.
The free boosterthon T-shirt order forms are due Monday, September 23. If we don’t receive the filled out order form, we will just guess on the size your child would wear.
We will be finishing up our peace lessons this week. We will talk about our emotions and how they change and learn activities we can use to calm ourselves when we are upset. We will learn to appreciate differences in people, To help the children understand the interconnection and interdependence of the Earth’s elements and life forms, we will create a “Web of Life” as a concrete representation. Lastly, we will create a “Web of Love” to help the children see how their love is connected.
In geography, we will continue our study of land forms. This week our focus will be on Straights and Isthmus. We will learn the different parts of a plant in biology; continue to learn about weather for science; and continue art activities using the primary colors. For practical life we will learn to peel and slice carrots. If you would like to sign up to bring carrots, here is the link- https://www.trackitforward.com/site/389525/event/501320
As always, we thank you for your support and contributions.
Ms. Martha and Ms. Valerie
