Dear XDC Families,

Students in XDC have enjoyed the “winter-themed’ crafts and activities they are busy working on. Some of the students’ favorite projects from last week were; making “valentine hearts,” making “feather-doves,” creating paper-owls for the letter “o,” and beginning “Valentine-crafts.”

Reminder to parents:

Thursday, February 16th is an all school noon dismissal. No PM preschool. Day Care will be open, but you must be signed up for the additional time. Please talk with Rachelle if you have further questions.

NO DAY CARE OR PRESCHOOL Friday, February 17th and Monday Feb. 20th

XDC Morning Pre-K News!

Hello preschool families and Happy Monday. This newsletter will be fairly brief because much of what we were to accomplish last week we didn’t get to due to our snow days!

This week we will celebrate Valentine’s Day and learn about St. Valentine. Our letter will be P.

We will learn about some important African American inventors and will read a story about Rosa Parks. Our inventions with recycled materials will be on Thursday.

Our peace corner is now in place and the doves surround the word PEACE. The purpose of this is to have a place the children can talk about conflict resolution with one another and hopefully come to a peaceful solution!

Given the circumstances last week, the children did a beautiful job adapting even though recesses were missed and schedules were changed. On Friday, we had a special snack of mini blueberry and chocolate chip muffins as a reward!

Have a great week and as always, please let me know if you have any questions!

Thank you,

Mrs. Flood
