LECC WEEKLY TIGER CUB TALK
September 30, 2022
I hope this email finds you well! Our KG Tiger Cubs were introduced this week to our Makerspace carts filled with themed activities planned each month by our KG teachers. The carts rotate between the classrooms to engage students in the continued development of their fine motor and critical thinking skills mixed in with lots of fun exploring, wondering, and problem-solving. Our PS Tiger Cubs have started the Fire Safety unit this week. They are learning all about fire safety and prevention. They even get to wonder what it is like to be a firefighter by putting on the firefighter uniform and using the play truck and hose during dramatic play!
We have been enjoying the cooler weather this week when outside exploring at recess or going for a nature walk with our class to visit the LECC Butterfly Garden. As the cooler weather starts to stick around for the fall and winter months, please remember to send your child with a weather-appropriate jacket/sweatshirt (don't forget to label it!) because we go outside every day the weather permits!
Looking into next week, we are celebrating the Loveland CSD Fall 2022 Homecoming week! As noted above, each day at LECC has a theme. We invite our Tiger Cubs and team to participate every day. Next Thursday, each student will have his/her picture taken. Please see the details below on how to order your Picture Day prints. We want to thank LEPTA volunteers for assisting us on this day to ensure our Tiger Cubs are ready to smile brightly!
Please check out the rest of this week's Tiger Cub Talk for helpful information from our LECC Team! It is a great day to be a LECC Tiger Cub!
Thank you!
