Wow! Back to school is here! This is a big transition for parents and children! Especially for your 3 year olds. Your child may be frightened and anxious about starting school. This is perfectly normal. It is okay for your child to experience these emotions. When you drop off your child, please make your good-byes short and sweet. We are used to this and know how to handle these situations.
Please take the time to read through the Adventure Preschool flip book that you received at back to school night in your child's green folder. (If you weren't there, you will get the folder on the first day of school.) Most questions will be answered by reading this flip book.
A skills practice sheet will be coming home in your child's kiwi pack this week. Please help your child color the crayons. Use these practice sheets every night to practice these skills with your child. Go slow, they have all year to learn these items! Try and make it fun. Point out colors, shapes, numbers and letters that you see around you! Practice counting items in your environment; cars on the road, boxes of cereal, items in your mailbox etc.
You are also going to receive a sheet to sign up for Class Dojo. This is an app that I use for behavior recording and attendance. I encourage you to use the code to sign up in order to view your child's record. If there is ever a severe issue with your child, you will receive a phone call or a note home or an email. Please sign and return this form.
Book orders: Please make checks out to Scholastic
Highlights: Please sign and return this form even if you don't want to order. Our classroom receives bonus supplies for ever form returned...even if it is checked no.
I can't wait to get to know all of your children and you this upcoming year!
