I hope that everyone had a great, relaxing, long weekend! This week in Preschool we will be learning all about colors. We will play in the Preschool Paint Store in Dramatic Play, we will observe two science experiments (mixing colors and liquid layers), we will finger paint in Art, and we will hear the story of Scat the Cat who changes colors "just like that!" In Religion we will learn that Jesus loves and cares for us just like a shepherd cares for his sheep. We will talk about others who love and care for us in our families, school, and the community. We will begin using our Handwriting workbooks. It's going to be a busy week!

Also, picture day is tomorrow and we are scheduled for 8:45 am. Retake day will be Wednesday, October 7.

Next week we have conferences after school on Thursday, Sept. 17 and in the morning on Friday, Sept. 18 (there is no school that day.) Conference times will be sent home on Wednesday and Thursday of this week.

Many thanks to the Krout, Determan, and Burke families for the treasure chest goodies!
