What a great week of school!  The students completed another full week of school (except for Thursday) AND we had our first Parent Meeting of the year!  It was a great success!  Thank you all for your participation and cooperation this week as we continue to work together to give your child a successful school year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At our Parent Meeting, we talked about Social-Emotional Development.  We talked about what Social-Emotional Development is, as well as strategies to help your child with their development at home.  One way we did this was by creating sensory bags.  We made these bags together using these three ingredients:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Hair gel<\/li><li>Sequence\/sparkles<\/li><li>Beads<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Mrs. Askar and I are looking forward to the next Parent Meeting on Thursday, January 13.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Next Week<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Monday, October 18-Thursday, October 21: Full day of school 8:15 AM-3:00 PM<\/li><li>Friday, October 22: Parent University<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Parent University<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What is Parent University?
