Preschool Newsletter

Wow! Can't believe that it is already Thanksgiving this week. Seems like the year is going so quickly right now. This is a super short week, only two days.

Thanksgiving Favorite Feast

Tuesday we will have our Favorite Feast to share our favorite snacks with our classmates. The snacks can be anything without nuts, something small that they can share and try something new.

I hope that everyone who is traveling has a safe and fun trip. If you are not going to be sending your child to school Monday and Tuesday, please let me know! I will take care of letting the office know.

These forms are located on Skyward and are extremely important for everyone to fill out. If you have already done so, thank you so much. If not, and you are having trouble, please call or come into the front office. The ladies at both Eisenhower and Bradley would love to help you get the form filled out.

With the weather getting colder and unpredictable, especially in the mornings. Please send in coats! We will go outside if the feel like temperature is above 27 degrees F and the playground is not icy/snowy.

The link below is the method that we use in class to help them put their coats on by themselves. The video doesn't show the step to make sure their sleeves are on the correct side. We are working on reaching in and pulling out the sleeves, which can be trick for some of the kiddos.
