Happy Friday!

     We have had a short week of school but boy have we been busy! We have been working on the letter Bb this week, counting to 8 in different ways in math, community helpers in our neighborhood, and we have started our PALs winter assessments. Our PALs assessments will continue for one more week. 
     Monday, money for the Domino's fundraiser is due. We cannot accept late orders because we are turning them in after school on Monday at our meeting. Thanks for all of your hard work supporting Child Development. Don't forget, next Thursday we will go to the Richland County Public Library (main branch).

Have a great weekend!

Check out some cute pictures of our friends from last week!

Happy New Year!

     We started this new year with new morning routines and procedures and I am so pleased at how well your children have done. We are now eating in our classroom as the children arrive at school. Once the students finish their morning procedures of unpacking, making a lunch choice, and washing their hands, they may choose to eat breakfast. (Please make sure that your child arrives prior to 8:00 if they are eating breakfast.) If students are not eating, they are sitting on the rug looking at books. This new routine has given us additional time in our school day. We have implemented small group rotations where one group works with me at the "Alphabet Time" teacher table, one group works with Mrs. Young at the "Math" teacher table, and one group works independently on the rug playing with individual tub toys and/or working on an independent project. We may still tweak the times a little bit as we continue but for now, I am attaching a new schedule for your information. 

     Please make note of the dates below. We are beginning a Child Development fundraiser on Monday. Please check your child's folder for information. 

     Have a great weekend!
