Good Afternoon.

“Everything you say to your child is absorbed, catalogued and remembered. ~Maria Montessori 

Please Note:  If you would like to send your child to school with Valentine’s Day cards on Thursday, that would be wonderful and I’m sure the kids would all love it!

We have eight children in the classroom and we would be more than happy to get you all a list of their names! They will be taped to your child’s cubby.

Our friends kept quite busy today! We love it when all of our little ones are fully and happily engaged.

We put our fine motor and hand-eye coordination skills to the test this morning. Jack even added in some of his wonderful imagination skills to add more enjoyment!  Puzzles are always fun, and we love them.  

The new puzzles that were donated are asked for daily and our friends spend quite a long time engaged in them. Jack took a couple of his puzzle pieces from the puzzle he was working on and flew them through the air and drove them on the table. He told Miss Marty, “Airplanes fly in the sky, and cars and trucks drive on the road.”

Zoe worked on utilizing her gross motor skills today by climbing on the habi-trail ladder. She has been working on this skill for a little while and was quite pleased with herself when she  achieved her goal of successfully getting over the ladder to the other side. Great job Zoe!!!

Breakfast: Whole grain English muffins with peanut butter and oranges.

Lunch: Whole wheat pasta with lentils, peas, and apples.

Snack: Whole milk yogurt with graham crackers.

Wee Sprouts: Fresh Cucumbers.

Have a wonderful evening!
Marty
