Lambs Class
December 2011 Newsletter
We are in the season of Advent now and our conversations, activities and crafts are all designed to prepare our hearts for Christmas. We are continuing to have chapel for approximately 20 minutes every Monday. In chapel, the children have been learning songs for the Christmas program on Sunday, December 18th @ 10:15am. More details will follow.
Our plan for the month is to begin learning:
Letter: F f Color: Green & Orange
Number: 4 (four) Bible story: The Christmas Story
Snack has been a wonderful experience in the classroom. We have enjoyed some delicious & healthy treats such as yogurt, homemade muffins, cheese sticks, goldfish, fruits & veggies. Thank you to everyone who has provided these wonderful, peanut-free treats. Please remember to check the monthly Snack Calendar hanging on our bulletin board or Tomorrow’s Hope Preschool website calendar http://www.tomorrowshopepreschool.org/calendar/ which will provide you with the Lamb’s class Snack Calendar for the entire year. Also, please remember to always include cups, plates and napkins to support the snack you have chosen to bring.
Show & Tell is the 1st Wednesday of every month. The children can choose an item from home that reflects the letters, colors or number we will be focusing on that month. Unless it is Show & Tell Day, please help your child to leave those special toys, blankets, stuffed animals, etc. in the car or at home. It makes for a very difficult situation for Ms. Linda and myself if we have to remove a personal item from the classroom because it is becoming a disruption. Thank you for your help with this request.
Our Christmas Party is scheduled for Wednesday, December 21st from 10:30a–12pm. Please check your calendars and get in touch with Amanda Kuklis or Natalie Frament if you would like to volunteer for the party. Sign-up sheets for items needed for the party will be hung outside of the classroom.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions. As always, I can be reached at carol@tomorrowshopepreschool.org.
