Update from Ms. R

After 19 days of being friends together in Room 101, the children have settled into routines, learned the names of their classmates and managed to move (fairly reliably) through the school walking in a line. I am also happy to report that most students are now able to put on their coats by themselves. Everyday I am lucky to see the faces of children as they do something for the first time and say, "I did it myself!"

Library Books

We visit the library once a week. The students began their book exchange this week. Students must return their books in order to take out a new book. The morning class goes to the library on Day 3 (this week that was Thursday) and the afternoon class goes on Day 5 (this week that was Monday).

School Snack Program

Our School Snack Program begins on October 12. Students need to sign up for this program to participate. Forms were sent home this week.
