Friday Update Sept 16 and Goodbye to Violet

We had to say goodbye to one of our friends yesterday. Violet, we will miss you! A message from our class today, “We wish you could come back to see us very soon. It feels so different without you here. We miss playing with you and there is a spot missing in our circle.” Seriously, can we have any more beautiful children? Violet we wish you and your family the best and we hope we can skype/facetime soon!





This week some of our learning included…
*making our alphabet wall (see next blog post for details.)
*we were into reading Eric Carle’s books—the kids are thinking about trying to imitate his art next week.
*the students asked to paint with their hands again, so they made handprints!
*we made cookies for Violet’s last day (with an amazing amount of sprinkles, so sorry about that!)
*we continued work on Mango and OC’s castle/maze/race track and are thinking that it might be read to paint and for them to try it out again.
*decorated lanterns and participated in Moon Festival activities in Chinese.
*..and much, much more!


REMINDERS / UPCOMING DATES
*Check in your child’s Friday Folder (the BLUE BAG) take everything out and return bag back to school on Monday.  We keep certain projects/activities here at school to put in your child’s portfolio (in case your child was talking about something you didn’t see.)  If the blue bag did not come home, they have either kept some things at school or did not make a lot of products to take home—they may have been exploring in other ways than painting, drawing, etc.
*Return Library books and RED LIBRARY BAG on Monday.

*Thursday, October 6 and Friday, October 7: Parent Teacher Conferences
The e-mail from the school should be sent to you soon, so look out for that. Please e-mail me if you have difficulty signing up once you receive the e-mail. Students do not attend these conferences.
*October 8th to October 16th: FALL BREAK-NO SCHOOL
*October 31st: NO SCHOOL (Deepavali)
*November 1st: NO SCHOOL FOR STUDENTS (Faculty Inservice Day)


Week 6 Sept 14 to 16
