February 27th - March 2nd

Go, Dog. Go! Week !!

There are only 75 words in the book Go, Dog. Go!  Most pages can be deciphered by looking at the pictures.  It is a great way to encourage reading with your kiddo!  They think it is so awesome to "read" you a story for a change.

It is also a great opportunity to review colors and position words.  Besides, who can resist a dog on roller skates or driving a car! 

To celebrate Dr. Seuss' birthday and Read Across America, on Friday, we will have an open rooms day with all our preschool friends!   We'll have fun crafts and of course eat green eggs and ham!

Spring Break is next week, March 5th - March 9th - No school.

Thanks to all families that have contributed to our woolly pockets garden fundraiser.  We are halfway to our goal! 

February 13th - February 17th

Valentine's Week! 

Valentine's celebrations will be:

• Monday 2/13 for MWF class
• Tuesday 2/14 for T/TH class

Your child may bring valentine's for their friends.  If you are bringing treats, please make sure they are nut free. 

We will spend the rest of the week talking about dental health.  We will learn about ways to keep our teeth healthy. 

Reminder....next Monday, February 20th there is no school in honor of President's Day. 

Thanks! 

February 6th-February 10th

Happy Super Bowl Sunday!  If you plan on cheering on your favorite team or just watch the commercials and eat great munchies....have a great time. 

Thanks to everyone who came to the Rodeo yesterday.  It was a beautiful day filled with flapjacks, real ponies and lots of smiles covered with birthday cake!  Your buckaroo worked so hard on their pony, I hope they enjoy playing with them at home.  There will be lots of discussions about Athena, Hercules, Patches & Cocoa...which horse did your cowpoke ride? 

Our rodeo them is almost over...but not quite.  This Friday, we have early release.  All classes will be released at 11:30 to allow for you to watch the Pony Express ride into town.  If you have not yet had the opportunity to watch this event, I highly recommend you take advantage this Friday.  It is Americana at it's finest!  I recommend you park in the Nordstrom's parking garage and then walk to the bronze Pony Express statue located just south of  Olive & Ivy restaurant.  You can't miss the crowd.  The riders make their appearance at high noon. 

Also...there is NO Stay n' Play this Friday.  Please make arrangements to have your child picked up by 11:30 this Friday. 

Our focus this month will be on mail, Valentine's Day,and dental heath that will lead us into a discussion on nutrition and gardening. 

We will have a Valentine's celebration on Mon 2/13 for MWF class and 2/14 for T/TH class.  If your child would like to bring in valentine's for their friends, they are welcome.  Please follow these guidelines:

• NO NUTS...please read labels
• no names on envelopes - just generic please
• treats don't have to be candy...but that  IS yummy! *

*after we pass out the treats, their bags will be stapled shut and you can pass them out to your child as you wish.
