September Week 4

From Ms. Smith

Thank you for your amazing support!

This week, we had a fantastic time learning new words, solving math puzzles, and exploring our creativity in writing.

We're excited about our "All About Me" project and our upcoming open house on Thursday. It was a long but wonderful week filled with:

  • Learning and music 🎶

  • Supplies from one of our student's family, which will be used to create fun activities...

  • Gross motor skills where we worked on moving our whole body...

  • And even some naps! 💤

With gratitude, Ms. Smith.
