DECEMBER NEWS

Happy 1st day of December! We hope you enjoyed a restful Thanksgiving holiday and break with your friends and family. It's difficult to believe that we only have a little less than 3 weeks until our Winter Break. Following are some Pre-K highlights and important information for the month of December.

COLORS: This Friday, Pre-K will have a "Color Day" with many special color-related activities. Please check your child's folder for a note explaining what we would like for the children to wear on Friday for Color Day. Next week, we will visit the Lower School Art room to do some color activities with Mr. Cicetti, Lower School Art teacher.

HOLIDAY LIGHTS: During the next few weeks, we will spend time learning and discussing how holidays use candles and lights during their celebrations. We have a parent volunteer who is coming in to discuss Diwali. If you are interested in coming in to share how a holiday (Hanukkah, Christmas, Advent, etc.) you celebrate uses candles/lights, please contact us as soon as possible.

P.E. SHOES: We will be sending home your child's P.E. shoes over Winter Break so that you can check them for size. Their little feet grow quickly! Please be sure to return a pair of P.E. shoes for them when we return from the Winter Break.
