This week we will continue with our All About Me theme. We will talk about our families and learn more about our new friends. Lots of time will be spent this year learning how to be a good friend. This includes sharing, taking turns, using kind words, and gentle hands.
On Friday, we made green rice to play with in our sensory tub this week. We will also be continuing to practice our cutting skills by creating faces from magazine cut-outs.
I have really enjoyed getting to know your little ones over the past couple of weeks. Their personalities are really starting to show and it has been so much fun to watch new friendships form. We have lots to look forward to this year.
Week of August 20th
The theme for this week is All About Me! We will be painting with our favorite colors, graphing these same colors, and creating self-portraits later in the week. We will spend a little time talking about our favorite things and how we are all the same and how we are different.
We will working with scissors and straws this week in the sensory tub. We will be learning to hold them correctly and how to safely handle scissors around others.

Week of August 13th
It was so great to meet all of the new families and see all of the returning families at Open House last night. I appreciate you all taking the time to come over and help your child get comfortable in their new classroom.
The theme this first week will be all about School. We go on a scavenger hunt to find all of the centers in our room. We will be learning some school rules. We will also be learning that while we can do certain things at home, we may not be able to do those same things at school (and vice versa). We will spend time talking about how we can be a good friend and why this is important. Most of these first few weeks will be exploring our new room, making new friends and playing with some fun, new toys.
Please be sure to bring in the spare change of clothes if you have not already done so. Also, it is important you bring in a water bottle each day. I can refill it throughout the day, but please make sure it arrives filled and their name is on it.
I am really looking forward to great year!
See you next week,
Kelly
