Fall Festival - Feedback from the children and collages

 (click on collage above to enlarge it)


“In the Barney costume, I felt a person…I felt hands…(whisper, eyes big) It was Mr. David.” 

"I had fun playing with Ellie, Samantha, Lindsay. and Diya. And I wasn’t scared of you! [Miss Leian]! I just like candy corn." 

"It was so fun and I didn’t know what my Mommy is. I thought the candies were gummy bears."

"Yeah, I had fun yesterday. I scared Barney and he was scared, then I hugged her and I sing the Halloween trick or treat song."

"I picked up sand. But I didn’t have a turn for the magic show. I like eating candies."

"I like Anisha being a ladybug. I enjoyed Barney. I saw a penguin!"

Guest Halloween storyteller

Miss Annie visits are always so fun...especially when she's telling (not so) spoooooky Halloween stories!

Dramatic Play: Playing school

Teacher Rais teaching with the AlphaFriends book - effective (and, in this case, most fun) way to retain/remember information is to teach it to someone else

Why we ask parents to label EVERYTHING :)

Fall is upon us, which means that children may be wearing jackets, mittens, hats, scarves, etc. at school. 

Please be sure to label anything and everything you bring to school. It is common for children to have the same, exact clothing -- often in the same size!
