DFP Family Update
September 26, 2025
Dear Feeney Families,
Students are actively engaged in so many rich activities here at DFP. A few examples include are learning about the parts of an apple, working cooperatively to "make" apple pies in the dramatic play areas, and answering "wh" questions during read alouds. Our young learners know the routines of the day and they have demonstrated great flexibility when there is a change to our schedule (indoor recess can be tricky!). Thank you for your support and partnership in making these first few weeks such a success. Enjoy the weekend ahead, see you on Monday.
Warmly,
Julie Martin
We talk a lot about apples this month!
