Community helpers

Our month on community helpers was a great month! we covered every kind of community helper from bankers to veterinarians. and today was a great day to finish off with the kids talking about what their parents do for career day. The kids were so cute standing up in front of their class doing their presentations. I can tell they have been practicing, they did a great job! We also celebrated leap year today! we held leaping contests, and did lily pad counting for math. it was fun!

Please make sure you are checking backpacks for notices and calendars for important dates. Some of the kids were unaware of the career day we had today. If your child was one of the ones that missed it today we would love to hear what their mom or dad does for work tomorrow, or next Wednesday. We just have them do a small presentation in front of the class telling us what mom or dad does for work. they can bring visual aides, pictures, or come dressed up. it doesn't have to be very long. it's always fun to see them talk about mom or dad.

To kick off Farm month on Monday March 5th,  is PET DAY! another day the kids have been looking forward to! on pet day each child will be able to bring in their pet to share with the class. if your child 's pet is too big, or excited, to bring into the class then you can have your child bring in pictures, or draw a picture of their pet, and things that they use to play with them. if your pet is brought in a container, and can stay, you are more than welcome to leave it with us for the whole class. if your child does not have a pet they can bring a stuffed pet or a drawing of a pet they would like to have one day or a picture of a neighbor pet they love. Should be a lot of fun! (if you have a pet that can't stay, but still want to bring, feel free to bring them at the beginning of class and let the kids see!)
