Preschool Weekly Update – week of 11/17
“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more.” — Melody Beattie
Hello Preschool Parents,
This week, we will be exploring our downtown community helpers. We will also be sending home the Thanksgiving week curriculum, which will conclude our month-long study of Community Helpers.
Our preschoolers’ service learning project, “Socks for Veterans,” ends this Friday, November 21st. When we return from Thanksgiving break, the children will sort, count, and bag the donated socks. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to this meaningful project.
Annual Fund:
Our class is currently at 29% participation. If we reach 100% participation by the end of this week, the preschoolers will earn a pizza lunch celebration! Thank you to those who have already participated.
Thank you as well for supporting your child by reinforcing the importance of listening and self-regulation at home. These skills make a meaningful difference in their classroom success, and we’ve heard some wonderfully positive language this week. We appreciate your continued partnership.
Reminder:
On Friday, November 21st, the preschool’s last pick-up time is 5:00 p.m. Thank you!
See you soon,
Ms. Grace and Mrs. Hall
