The Week of January 26th


January Birthday Celebration
We will celebrate January birthdays this Friday. If your child has a birthday during the month of January, please send in 25 treats for them to share with their classmates.

Classroom Observations
Observations begin this week. We are pleased that you are taking the time to
observe our classroom. Our goal is to provide a loving, respectful, and supportive environment in which children will blossom. We ask that you stay seated in the observation chairs and try not to engage the children in conversation. If a child asks who you are or what you’re doing in the class, a polite “Hello, I’m ____. I’m here to watch you and your friends work” is appropriate. We look forward to seeing you!  If you haven't done so already, please use the link below to schedule a classroom observation.

Yearbooks can be ordered by going to www.strawbridge.net (Use code: YB108996). Yearbooks are $20 if you order them by February 22 (please help us by ordering before this date so we have a good idea of how many to order!). After that, the price will increase to $25.

Kroger Gift Cards
Please send in a $20 Kroger gift card for snack if your family chose to break it up into 2 payments. Thank you for helping us provide your child with healthy and organic snacks daily!

P.A.C.K Field Trip
We love this community service field trip! Our students worked hard to fill hundreds of bags of food to feed other children in our community. They also packed snacks for children, who are sick, and spend many hours at a time in clinics to receive cancer treatment.  The students also got to be creative while making cards with inspirational messages on them. Many children were interested in going back to P.A.C.K with their families. The following link is to their website.

Field Trip
We will have a field trip this Friday in the morning. This field trip form was sent home and filled out at the beginning of the school year.

Classroom Observations
It is recommended that all parents come in to observe our environment twice a year. Observations give parents a better understanding of what exactly is happening in the Montessori environment. Please use the link below to schedule a classroom observation.
