This week the children will learn everything about being little chefs and they will help us to prepare delicious recipes such as pizza, lemonades, sandwiches, etc.

We have scheduled learning activities related to this theme to continue strengthening gross and fine motor skills, language and socio-emotional skills so children can continue learning through experiences.

Discuss about summer.

Make a refreshing lemonade.

Help to prepare a delicious salad.

Friendly Reminders

Remember your child to wash his/her hands when entering the classroom and before leaving the school. This is the best way to prevent illnesses.

Make sure to bring your child on time so he/she can participate in circle time. This activity starts at 8:45 am and will stimulate and strengthen skills in all areas.

Read your child’s journal, blogs and Friday Newsletter. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us in case you have any comment or any question about your child’s development or any notes/comments made in your child’s journal.

Avoid bringing your child with items that can cause distraction such as toys, necklaces, bracelets, watches, etc. This is needed to help him/her concentrate in the scheduled activities at school.

Label all your child’s clothing and items and make sure that your child has extra set of clothing that is appropriate to weather in his/her cubby.

Make sure to remove clothing from the cubby and just leave one set of clothing and a blanket for nap time.

Make sure to take the blanket home on Fridays for laundry and bring it back on Monday.

Make sure to have enough pull-ups or diapers in the cubby for the day, if your child has not been potty-trained yet.

If your child is bringing a lunch box, please label it with your child’s name and date and place it in the kitchen refrigerator.

Take home the homework blue folder in your child’s cubby and take one or 2 paper sheets from the container that are next to the entrance of the classroom. Homework should be returned by Tuesday and do not forget to bring the homework folder back on Monday.

Do not bring your child to school if the child has a fever of over 101 F or any contagious conditions.

Apply sunscreen to your child every morning.

Make sure to keep in your child’s cubby a pair of glasses and a summer hat.

Have your child wear swimsuit, splashers or swim diapers and water shoes for Splash Day. Make sure to send a towel and a plastic bag for wet items. Label and pack all these items in the tote bag.

Sunscreen and mosquito repellent are important to protect your child because he/she is very susceptible to sunburn/mosquito bites. Yet applying sunscreen and mosquito repellent to your child requires planning. If sunscreen and mosquito repellent must be applied to your child, make sure to fill out an administration or authorization form specifying when sunscreen and mosquito repellent should be applied and be sure to supply the sunscreen and mosquito repellent, label the bottles with your child's name and place them in a Ziploc bag.
