This week in the Green Room

Hello parents:

Well it was life back to normal and back to a routine this week. We hope you all had a fabulous holiday season and enjoyed the time with your families.

On Tuesday we read the Rainbow Fish and talked about the lesson of sharing in this story. We also made our snowmen pictures & practiced counting the number of cotton balls used.

On Thursday we read Under my Hood I Have a Hat. We practiced making "H's" in blue finger paint. We liked how the paint felt on our whole hand. We also made some awesome pictures by rolling around balls in paint using a box. Roller ball painting is what the kids named it! Ask your child about this. They loved it.

We learned a new song sung to the tune of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" about the month of January and winter time.

Welcomed Lily to the am class! It is not too late for a child to start if you have a friend interested. There have been questions about that. Registration is going on now for next year. There is also no school on Tuesday, January 18th due to in service day and Olentangy schools are off.

Next Thursday, we are having a "Bear Day". We would like everybody to bring a bear with them to school. The kids will love this day! It is a" beary' special day! :)

Just a quick reminder at pick up to please pull up as close as you can to the car in front of you. A few parents expressed concern. We try to give the children to you as fast and safely as possible not wanting to have cars lining up in the street. Thanks so much!

As always thanks for sharing your children with us! They are very special and bring a smile to our faces by some of the things they say and do. Happy New Year!

Warmly,
Mrs. Ramsey & Mrs. Reed
