Hello Firefly Families!
Our first week back was a great one full of new routines, new friends and a new school for some of our Fireflies. We watercolored fireflies to decorate our classroom, learned all about the letter L, created a class book after reading the book The Kissing Hand, started Show and Tell, began writing in our journals with the journal prompt "My favorite thing about school is..." and went on a "Back to School Scavenger Hunt" to learn where things are around the LECC. We read the books Click Clack QUACK to School, The Kissing Hand, The Pigeon HAS to Go to School and Our Class is a Family.
Reminders:
*NO SCHOOL Monday, September 1st: Labor Day!
*Morning Carpool is from 8:40-9:05. Afternoon Carpool is from 3:10-3:30. In the afternoon, please pull over to the 5th Grade Center side to buckle in your child.
*We will be sending home our Show and Tell Bag with a new Firefly every day. Please help them pick out one special toy/picture/item to bring in to show their friends! We will also be sending home our Firefly Kissing Hand book in the Show and Tell bag next week. Please read this with your child and send it back the next day in the bag. Thanks for your help with this!
*Please NO TIE shoes until your kiddo knows how to tie them independently. We take our shoes on and off throughout the day (to dump sand, rest time, etc) and they get super frustrated when they can't do it by themselves!
*If you know your child does not sleep and you would like to send in a rest time activity, please no iPads or tablets! Books, puzzles, quiet games, Magnadoodles (or something similar) are all a good choice.
Here are some pictures from our first week back to school!
