Special Events:
 Last week was Riley´s Birthday. She turned 4. Sorry we missed it because of the Holidays but now we want to congratulate her. Happy Birthday beautiful princess!!

Reminders/ Special Activities:
* Next week, Simon is our student of the week. He is the last one in the list. We want to thank all of you parents for your valuable time shared with us. It was so nice to meet all your family members and know a little bit more about the activities that your child likes. Thanks again. After Simon´s week, we will start working with Sammy the Frog (our “pet”). In Sammy´s back pack you will find some directions and examples about what to do through the week that you´ll enjoy him.

* We will make an experiment using a flashlight and a globe to understand better the day & night

* If you have the opportunity, go and visit the Planetarium or any museum to enforce our theme. Children will have fun.

* Next Monday we are sending our Art Project. We really need your support in it because we will work in the Universe. Some Families will receive a planet (eight in total), another sun, other ones the moon, one more an astronaut, and another one a rocket ship. Other families will work with stars. It is really important that you send us your project as soon as possible so we could work at the class, enforcing our topic. We don’t want to miss anyone so children can learn with a complete view of the Universe.

*Parents, help us by arriving at the Class on time, help children to engage easily and have a better day. We understand that sometimes the traffic, appointments, weather, or others are situations that interfere on being on time but we really appreciate your valuable help. 


Have a terrific weekend!
