NO Pics :( too busy!!!!

Today has been so busy that I didn't even have a change to pull out my camera!!!!  The first thing we did today we play in centers and learn how to share and work through our problems when we encounter them in our center!!!  Mrs. Shaide was busy hanging up our new artwork for our classroom!!!!  We love looking around and see our work!!!
 
Then we PLAYED OUTSIDE!!!!!  We love days when the weather is nice and we get to play outside.  We had a few sprinkles fall on us but that didn't stop us from having a good time!!!
 
When we came back to the classroom we had some visitors from Hall High School there to observe and play with us!  They were really nice and then even sat with us at lunch!!!!  After lunch that played with us in our center while Mrs. Strom tested us on our letters!!! 
 
Now we are all resting and waiting to see who the best hibernator will be!!!!!!!

Lunch Guidlines

Above is the guidelines for your child's lunchbox if they chose to bring a lunch box to school.  You were given this at the informational meeting for Pre-K and it is also in the school handbook.  We are monitored very closely and if your child's lunch doesn't meet these guidelines each day then they will receive a tray lunch.  Make sure you are looking in the correct age category. 
 
Thanks to everyone for picking up your children yesterday during our inclement weather day!!  I know some of you were so worried about being late and I didn't want you to worry at all.  I know first hand how terrible the traffic was!  I am just glad that everyone made it home safe and sound!!  I know this blog post isn't the most interesting, but hey sometimes you just have to be a little boring!!
