The Weekly Update #23
February 15, 2024
Look what we're learning!
Happy Valentine's Day
One day late, we had our Valentine's party at school. We had pink frosting heart cookies, played Valentine themed games, explored in a Valentine themed sensory box, and exchanged Valentine cards with one another. We even did yoga lead by a heart!
Earlier this week..
Prior to Valentine's parties, we had two days of exploration in our classroom. The magnatiles and water table were especially popular this week. We got out some new fine motor tools too.
Updates & Reminders
Water Bottles
Library - Thursdays
Reading Logs
Reading Logs will be sent home on Thursdays. If you are able to return them by Wednesday of the following week, Ms. Angela will read names over the intercom and those students get to come down to the office and get a little prize.
Change of Clothes
Please remember to keep a season-appropriate change of clothes in your child's backpack. We will go out to recess when it is cold, so make sure they are dressed for the weather to play outside. Don't forget coats, hats, gloves, etc. If you are in need, please let me or Ms. Emily know and we can get you connected with a coat.
Attendance and Transportation
Be sure to email YELCOffice@center.k12.mo.us with any attendance or transportations changes or updates. Please also copy ncollins@center.k12.mo.us so I can stay informed as well.
