We will be taking a field trip to the Museum of Natural History on Friday, October 22nd. We will be leaving school at 9:25, so if you would like to join us, please be here then. We are taking the Mountain Lion bus, and we will return back to school around 11:45. We would love to have parents come along. I won't be able to go, so having a few extra hands would be great! It should be a great trip, and they are looking forward to having us. If you are interested, leave me a post on the blog, email me, or talk to me at school.
Looking forward to another great week at school! I am really working with your kiddos on expressing themselves in healthy ways and talking through their problems with each other (and not tattling). At school, when someone is doing something that we don't like I have asked them to say to one another, "what you are doing is hurting my feelings" and then to have the person respond with, "I am sorry, and I won't do it again." This is great language to use, and could be something to use at home with your children. We are also working on expressing our feelings without crying, and using our words. Also something you could work on with your child at home. It is important for your child to be able to express their feelings, and "use their words" to explain and describe how they are feeling.
Parent-Teacher Conferences this week! Looking forward to meeting with all of you to discuss your child.
