 Greetings!
                 
We wish you all a Happy and Healthy New Year and we look forward to all the exciting events to come throughout the year!
 The return of preschool this month signals to us once again, the importance of maintaining a safe and healthy environment for the children and staff- especially during these unprecedented times with Covid-19 and the flu season upon us. We encourage you to sanitize both your hands as well as, your child’s hands during morning arrival and to wear a mask during morning drop-off and afternoon pickup. Please provide extra masks in your child’s backpack, and keep your child at home, if they are sick. You must also notify the center immediately if you, your child, or a family member is diagnosed with Covid-19. There is a 14-day quarantine period for anyone diagnosed with covid-19. A doctor's written confirmation that the child may return to school is required. 

 Learning experiences include Early Language and Literacy. We will be reading a variety of books about winter and animals that hibernate in winter, along with stories written by our children’s author of the month, Ezra Jack Keats. The children will also engage in retelling and acting out stories, make story predictions, and share their favorite part of a story. 
 Progress reports will be sent home during the week of January 25th. Teachers will also schedule a phone conference with you. Please visit the class dojo daily, and inform me if you are having difficulty logging in.
End of the year, the tuition statement for 2020, will be sent home before the end of January.

Happy Spring everyone, And welcome to our new children into the program! Finally, we are springing into warm weather, and flowers and leaves will begin to sprout! This month’s learning experience will be all about science; the children will be exploring, experimenting, investigating, and learning all about living things. The children will be going outside to explore living things around them, planting seeds, and learning the life cycles of various plants and insects. Books relevant to this experience will be “The Tiny Seed” and “The Very Hungry Caterpillar” by Eric Carle, and other resourceful books that support this subject. Parents, please go onto classroom Dojo to further extend your child’s learning from the classroom to home. Read daily to your child to engage them in thinking, remembering, and expressing their ideas from what they are learning. Important dates: This Friday, April 2 Center is closed: “Good Friday.” Reminder: children need 3 changes of full clothing, small blanket for naptime
