Last Week's Theme: Fun in the Sun :: This Week: Camping!!!

So last week we had a lot of fun in the sun. We went on a field trip to Franklin Park and ran around in the sprinklers! We made ice cream cones and suns out of little construction paper hands and paper plates! The weather has been really nice and hot, unfortunately smoky but hopefully the upcoming cool rains will calm the heat and smoke. Hoping all of you are having a wonderful and beautiful summer thus far!


The next two weeks is all about CAMPING! We are going to be doing a couple projects, paper lanterns being one of them. We have a lot of fun crafts in mind and the children will be sent home with a lot of art projects at the end of these two weeks. If you have any camping books you'd like to share bring them to school and we will read them to the class!


Here are some pictures from the last couple weeks:::


Enjoy!

Theme of the Week: Healthy Teeth!

This week it's all about healthy teeth! We are learning about our teeth and what we have to do to take care of them! We had two dentist assistants come in on Tuesday and talk to our class about the importance of brushing and flossing our teeth. The ladies kept telling the kids to allow mommy and daddy to help! They showed the kids on a model how to brush and floss and passed around a silly stuffed dragon with some serious chompers! The kids thoroughly enjoyed the enthusiasm from our special guests and were given goodies bags with new toothbrushes to take home!

We have been working on a couple projects as well! We made mouths out of construction paper and glued little marshmallows inside for teeth! We will be making toothbrushes this week too!

If you haven't gotten a chance, check out the white board during drop-off or pick-up for reminders!

• Labels! Please label all of your child's possessions.   

• Mondays will be our sprinkler day, if the weather allows, so don't forget your swim suit, water shoes, and towel (please make sure everything is labeled!)

• Thursdays are still show and share day, so bring something new to show and share with the class!

• If your child does not come on Thursday they may bring a show and share item on Wednesday!

• New art cubbies are inside the Raccoon classroom. This is where you will find all of the art projects we have been working on!

Here are some pictures from this week so far!! Wishing everyone a happy and healthy week!
