Another Short Week!

We managed to squeeze a whole lot of fun into our two days of school last week.  We painted flowers to begin our unit of spring.  Maybe our artwork will motivate spring to arrive for real!

Bubbly Bubbly Bubbly  

It was a messy one, but we certainly had fun strengthening our oral motor muscles by bubble painting to make new placemats this past week.  You can click here to see more pictures of our bubbly adventure.  

Jump Around!

In the gym we set up several stations for the students to rotate through that focused on JUMPING!  We practiced jumping down, hopping on one foot, two feet jumping, as well as jumping on the mini trampolines.  We also sang Five Green and Speckled Frogs to practice jumping down from the log (bench) when it was our turn.

Spring FOPS

Thank you to all of the families who attended the Spring Themed FOPS on Friday.  The students had a blast rotating through different spring stations with their family members while they worked on developing a wide variety of skills.

Rubber Boots!

Please send your child to school with rubber boots and splash pants this week.  All of this spring snow is making our playground and field very wet.  Please also make sure that your child has an extra change of clothes hanging on their hook (or in their backpack) incase they happen to get wet when we are outside.  Thank you!

A Field Trip to Robina Baker!

It is official - we are thrilled to announce that PreK will be moving back to Robina Baker for the upcoming school year.  

This means, that whether your child is moving on to kindergarten, or staying in PreK, we are ALL going to be going to Robina Baker School in September.

In order to help with this transition, I have planned a “Field Trip to Robina Baker FOPS (Family Orientated Programming Session).”

This FOPS is open to ALL of the students from our PreK program.  

It will be held on Friday, May 5th from 10:00 - 11:30 am

• We will meet at the front doors of the school

This FOPS is a chance for you and your child to come to Robina Baker and get to know our future school!  There will be a scavenger hunt set up for you and your child to do together, as well as the opportunity for some exploration in one of the kindergarten rooms.

Please let me know if you plan on attending.  

We will also be hosting a Kindergarten Information Night 

Wednesday, April 26 at 7 pm! 

This event is a great opportunity for families and children to tour the school, meet the teachers, and learn more about the program! If you have a child registered in Pre-Kindergarten or Kindergarten next year, please join us.  If you know of a family with children ready to come to school and have not registered yet, please let them know we still have room and they are welcome to come to the parent night too. All parents will receive class preference and payment information. If you are unable to attend: please contact the office for missed information.

You are more than welcome to attend the Field Trip to Robina Baker FOPS, the Pre-K and Kinder Night, or both if you wish!
