UPCOMING SCHEDULE IS:

January 11 theme is GOOD FOOD and our Special Event is the Gingerbread Man.  The students will help stir a gingerbread batter.  We will pour it into my special pan and take it to Tina’s house to bake in her oven.  When it is done baking, Tina will bring it over to school for our snack.  Sometimes the Gingerbread boy runs away and we have to hunt for him.  You never know what he might do.

January 18 there is NO SCHOOL due to Martin Luther King holiday.  Our theme for the rest of that week is Stone Soup.  We will read the story of Stone Soup, the children will act out the story, and we will make Stone Soup for our snack.  I will provide the pot, the stone and meatballs.  The Bears may bring in a carrot, a potato, an onion, crackers, beef broth, canned veggies-carrots, corn, string beans, peas, etc., noodles, any thing you have extra that will help our soup taste great!

January 25 the theme is bedtime and our Special Event is a Slumber Party.  The children may come in their pajamas and bring a blanket or a sleeping bag.

For more themes, check our web site calendars.

Each month we ask the families to bring in a snack item and a paper product.  Our needs this month are paper cups-5 oz if possible, napkins, paper towels, tissues, juices, snack items, carrots, cheeses, cereals, crackers, etc.  Please NO PEANUT BUTTER!
