Happy Sunday! Last week we were able to access the children on holding a pencil properly, writing their name, cutting, and gluing skills. If you are working on name writing at home, please make sure your child is not using all upper case letters. We continued working on ground rules and having children learn to do things for themselves. The children have such a sense of pride when they accomplish a task. You can work at this at home by encouraging self care, or giving them small jobs such as setting a table. It may not be perfect but they did it! *The first couple weeks of school may seem challenging to children and parents. When teachers and parents works together, your child will become more successful! Have your child understand that they are in a safe place, and you will always return for them. * This coming week we are planning on starting presentations and individual lessons. Work will start slowly filling our shelves, giving the children more choices as the grow and learn. * REMINDERS: Scholastic book orders are due tomorrow. You are not limited to the fliers that were sent home. Take time to browse the website for other age appropriate books. * Field trip money is due this Wednesday. Looking forward to a great week ahead!
