Summer is coming to an end. We have enjoyed hearing about the many camping trips and airplane rides the children have been fortunate enough to experience with their families. Our excitement grows while thinking about the upcoming plans for the new school year.
The new school year will bring on many changes in the classroom. We will meet new friends, possibly new teachers, and have new interests to base our activities on. During August the children showed interest in zoo animals and community vehicles. We supported this interest by adding zoo toys to our shelves, and by basing our circles around community helpers, and the vehicles they drive. The teachers in our room will continue to implement interest based activities as fall arrives and new interests emerge.
This is a great time of year to renew your child’s cubby with weather appropriate clothing, and to take home items that no longer fit. Please be sure to provide additional clothing if you do take home old clothing, so we have extras for accidents, spills, and messy art days.
Reminder Story Book will be closed on Monday, September 1st for Labour Day and Monday, October 13th for Thanksgiving.
