Parent Teacher Conferences This Week

 

We are all so excited to meet with each and every one of you to discuss your child's development and how special each and every child is to us.  We look forward to meeting with you this week.  

 

Conferences are scheduled for Tuesday, February 4, Wednesday, February 5, and Thursday, February 6.  School will be closed to normal classes on those days, as we want to devote time to each and every parent to discuss and praise your sweet little ones! 

 

 We ask that if you possibly can, not to bring your child with you.  If you can work out trading off with another mommy for a few minutes, that would be ideal; but if not, we will have an area set up for play for your children.  We want to make this day as easy on you as possible.

We will have classes on Monday, February 3rd and that will be our make-up pajama day, as we missed this event due to school closings.

 

We will have regular classes on Friday, February 7th and will introduce our new Bible Verse, "Love One Another", 1 John 4:7.  We will also work on our bulletin board, decorating it with hearts, doilies, stickers, and red paint.  This is the time of year where we focus on loving one another, so we will be working together to show ways of loving our friends.

Sensory Tables: Red and pink pasta, with hearts and glitter.

Water Table: Fishing nets, pink foam hearts to catch.

Blocks: Connecting people (for friends), hearts to stack.

Home Living: Cupcake tins for baking, sharing heart cookie shapes, mailbox, paper and stamps for delivering mail to friends.

Writing Center: Paper and stamps to give to friends.

Books: Mouse's Valentine, Guess How Much I Love You, I Am Special (song), Hickory, Dickory Dock Nursery Rhyme.

Art: Painting with red, making a special card for Mom and Dad.

 

We love this time of year as it focuses on the love of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and gives us a chance to show that love to your sweet little ones.  Thank you for all that you do and for allowing us the privilege of teaching your children.
