January Recap and February News

Happy New Year! January was full of many interesting discussions. After returning from winter break, the children took time to get back into routine, and we were happy to have everyone back and to welcome our new students. The children studied Snow, Winter, and Ice, as well as Winter animals and hibernation. They were excited to learn about polar bears, penguins, and other hibernating animals. They were especially interested in animals that hibernate in caves! Our book of the month, The Mitten, was a huge success among the children.

In February, we are studying Cultural Awareness and Friendship. We will be learning about Black history as well. In our Montessori studies we will focus on the continent of Asia. The children will discuss family traditions and cultures, what it means to be a good friend, and being kind to all people. Feb. 25th is our Open house; please remember school will close at 3pm this day. On Feb. 14th, we will celebrate Valentine’s Day with a themed party in each classroom. Your child is welcome to bring in a Valentine for each class member. Sign-ups for the celebration will be posted on your child’s classroom door the week prior.


Other dates to remember are Feb. 17
th-18th school will be closed for President’s Day and our professional development day.

Our snack host program is an excellent opportunity for direct involvement in assuring the children eat a healthy snack each morning. Please look for the reminders in Procare of when it’s your child’s turn to be their class snack host. The children really look forward to their day to pass out their snacks and be the calendar and flag helper for the day. Thank you, parents, for your participation in school activities. We truly appreciate you! We are looking forward to the exciting activities February will bring.



Once again, thank you for all you do!
