• It hardly seems possible that seven months of school have passed so

quickly. Who would have believed that paper bag puppets and other wonderful

crafts would become a part of your home décor? Our develop-mental goals are

to give praise to each child for something they’ve accomplished and to help our

children gain self confidence. Please check your child’s cubby and make sure that

there is a change of clothing for emergencies. Thank you and God Bless!

Library News from Mrs. Williams Books are as good as Gold. The Library is a

marvelous spot to explore new worlds.

SPRING FOR

ADVENTURE – READ!

Throughout the month of March, stories will

center on spring, insects, animals and lots of

adventure. After a cold and snowy winter,

picture books are just what is needed to

brighten and cheer the children up for

sunny mild and breezy spring days, and to

help keep our preschoolers excited about

books and reading.

Reading & sharing books during Library visits:

- Enhance children’s listening skills.

- Introduces children to a wide variety of

experiences through social interaction

with other children.

- Increases their attention span.

- Introduces children to Art through the

illustrations appearing in a book.

- Helps prepare children for learning to

read and creates an interest in reading.

Let’s Encourage and Excite preschoolers

about books and READING!

Supplies Needed: Thank you parents for turning in cleaning supplies to your

child’s teacher. If you have not turned in any supplies please do so. With the

numerous colds and viruses going around our current supply is in high demand,

and will diminish quickly. To maintain a clean and germ-free environment for

your child: Clorox wipes, baby wipes, tissue boxes, and paper towels are greatly

needed.

•This month is filled with fun and excitement as we prepare for our International

Week on March 17-21. Parent volunteers will be needed to make our festivities a

success during our journey on Thursday, March 20th and Friday, March 21st.

Please contact your child’s teacher if you are interested. We look forward to

having you join us on our adventures this month.
