Dec 9-13

Dear Sunshine families,

        Time is going by so quickly! I can't believe we only have 2 weeks in class before winter break. We will be very busy in class finishing up projects and getting ready for Winter Concert.

Our concert is this Wednesday at 6:00. Kids can be dropped off in the Sunshine Class at 5:45, please make sure they have used the restroom as we don't have much time to stop for that. After kids have been dropped off families will head up to the Sanctuary.  We will bring the kids up to perform and after the concert we will release them to you and sit together for a slide show.

Social/Emotional- This week  we will continue working on secret gifts in class for families and practicing onstage for our winter concert.

Art- We will be making secret gifts; tree collages and cinnamon ornaments.

Literacy- This week we will read: Snow What Fun, The Biggest Best Snowman and Santa's Secret helper

Math/science: We will have the light table in our room for the next two weeks. The kids323q love looking at different objects on the table and building with colorful magnet pieces

Extras:   

With last week's wintery weather I thought I'd remind everyone of our inclement weather policy. If Vancouver School districts are closed or have a 2-hour late start we will not have class. If you are ever not sure you can call the preschool office and a recording stating that we are closed will be posted. I also try to email families as soon as I know if school is canceled.

        Mark your Calendars for the evening of December 11th at 6:00pm as we present our winter concert to families. The Sunshine Class will be joining with the Busy Bee and Dragonfly classes on this night. We’ll be singing winter/holiday songs for your enjoyment and then afterward the scholastic book fair will be open for book buying. This is a fun night so be sure and plan to come.       

In February we will take a field trip to see a play by the Northwest Children's Theatre. On February 12th we will not be in class and as a school attend this fun play! I will have a sign up out this week so we can get an idea of how many will attend.
