Spring Assessment & Progress Reports
We will be working on assessments over the next several weeks and Progress Reports will go home the middle of May. There are not official days scheduled for conferences but as any time during the year if you have any concerns please feel free to contact me.
As we look back through the year I really notice how much social growth has gone on!
We encourage children to have a voice for themselves when there is something bothering them or a peer is having a hard time keeping their hands to themselves. We even roll play this when it occurs and I can honestly say that I have seen significant growth in our class, we are always growing and learning, I learn from your children every day! So please talk with your children about how to handle a situation if something is bothering them by using their voice by say “Stop! I don’t like that” and if that doesn’t work ask a teacher for help. We want your child to be able to have their own voice.
Summer Camp
Summer is sneaking up on us! Little Acorn is offering two weeks of different themed summer camps this year. The first week will offer Dinosaurs OR Disney and the second week will offer Pirates & Princess OR Legos. Each week will include outside water play each day! (As weather permits) Information is included in the link below!

The letter of the week will be Mm for Mom! The children love to bring items into share and this is a great way to have them start to think about beginning letter sounds so we encourage you to help your children find something they can bring in that starts with the letter of the week.
