I can't believe that we are now in the month of November!  With the cold weather quickly approaching, please remember that we go outside everyday (weather permitting!) so dress in layers!  If you could label all outer clothing that would be very helpful, the children do not always recognize their warm coats and accessories!

Here is a peek at our room in October!

 

Thank You Hooksett Firefighters!

The Hooksett Firefighters came to our classroom last week!  They gave a fabulous presentation to the children!  They told the children how important it was to never hide if there was a fire at their house and they spoke of the importance of smoke detectors.  We also talked about having a meeting place to go to in case of a fire.  We talked to the children about how at school we have fire drills and our meeting place is in the big playground at the number 2.  Remember, it is also important to have fire drills at home and to have a meeting place, whether it be the mailbox or a neighbors house.  Please take a moment, talk as a family and practice going to your meeting place!  

Here is a peek at our week!

First Days!

What a wonderful first week of school!  The children are quickly learning the school routine and we are learning everyone's names!  Here is a peek at our room!

Welcome!

We are so excited for the upcoming school year!  I know you have many questions, so I hope to answer some here!

When is Open House?

Open house is August 26th from 2 to 4.  Come in and say hello!

What are the hours of the preschool? 

Morning Session:  9:15-11:45                         Afternoon Session 12:30-3:00

Drop off and pick up will both be out back at the preschool playground weather permitting.  If it is raining we will be under the gazebo next to the playground.

What should my child bring to school?

Your child will need a small backpack, one healthy snack and drink, and a change of clothes in a ziplock bag.  (just in case!)

What is the preschool schedule?

The following is a tentative schedule.  For the most part we will always follow this schedule, but I like to be flexible!

• Drop off/Outside play
• Circle
• Centers/Small group
• Snack
• Circle/Music
• Outside play/Pick up

I am a big believer in the benefits of outside play.  It is so important for large muscle growth, exercise, social skills……the list is endless.  So we will go out most days, even in the winter!

I hope I have answered some of the big questions.  Please feel free to contact me with any other questions or concerns and we look forward to a fabulous school year!
