September 17 - September 21, 2007

We have had a very busy first full week of school.  There were a few tears, but they seemed to stop as soon as we started painting and coloring.   Wednesday’s class enjoyed playing with the paper bears in the warm water.  They all discovered how the bears wake up after hibernating all winter.  What Fun!  And painting!  Whew!  They all love to paint!

September tuition is due.  The Registration fee of $25.00 is due at the beginning of each year…it pays for your child’s subscription to Let’s Find out newspapers. 

September book orders should be ordered by Wed., Sept 19th.  The books should arrive in 1-2 weeks.  If you want the books to be kept secret from your child, just let one of the teachers know.

September supplies are coming in.  I would like to thank everyone for all the wonderful supplies.  If you haven’t had an opportunity to send your paper and snack item in, we need copier paper and juices this month.  Thanks again!

This week our theme is MOTHER GOOSE.  We will practice our Nursery Rhymes and even watch a 16 mm reel movie about Mother Goose. 

MONDAY the class will begin by following the lines.  This practice is a wonderful way to help develop fine motor skills.

Last week we had a chance to draw with chalk on the sidewalk, play with our horses and safari sets, play color and shape bingo, use our sets of sewing cards, play Farmer in the Dell, and play with our play doh.  Everyone learned to make balls, logs, and pancakes.

October 15 theme is Fire Safety and the color is Red.

Halloween parties and parades are planned for Tues., Oct 30 and Wed, Oct 31st.

More parent secrets:  Children need love-but this does not mean doing as he pleases. Too much pressure can result in harm to a child.  Children learn by repetition.

Thanks again for all your support Cindy Reardon 232-2230
