I will provide each child with a rest pillow. Please send a small blanket or towel in a plastic bag, for each child to use at rest time. The towel or blanket will be sent home each Friday, to be washed and returned to school after the weekend. The children may also bring in a favorite stuffed animal, but please do not send any stuffed toys that make noise. Rest time will be a quiet part of our day.
Birthdays are special occasions for young children.
We are happy to celebrate birthdays during our afternoon snack time. Please send a note if you wish to do this, so I can inform you of the number of children in our class. Children who have summer birthdays may celebrate their half-birthday, so that they may have a special day in school as well. For example, if the child's birthday is August 1st, we will celebrate their half-birthday on February 1st. Please send these items on the first day of school.
