School News
The fundraising committee for our school has an opening and needs your help. If you can help, they meet the 2nd Wednesday of every month at 9:30 in the Bethel room. I just want to take this opportunity to say thank you to all the parents for the hard work and dedication to our school!!
A note from the teacher
Thank you to all of you for a great first week back and helping with our New Year’s Celebrations!! We had a fun time playing games and eating some delicious foodJ.
Teacher Veronica and I wanted to thank you all for the wonderful cards and thoughtful gifts during the holiday season. They were very thoughtful and we really appreciate being remembered, thank you.
I have been trying to book a field trip to the Fire Station and was notified that is not going to be possible this year. Fire District 6 has changed their policy and wont do field trip for schools out of their district and Vancouver Fire District doesn’t allow children under the age of five on their field trips. So that’s where the bowling field trip comes in to play. The children will have a blast and it will be nice and warm inside. So mark your calendars for January 22nd & 23rd for bowling at Crosley Lanes at 9:30 for morning classes and 12:30 for the afternoon classes. The cost will be $2.00 a person. As with any field trip, we will meet there and parents stay and play.

This Week in the Sunshine Class
We are exploring winter this week. We will be creating a winter scene and going for a snowy drive through some shaving crème. We will be playing in some fake snow and have a snowball fight with paper snowballs. We will have a snowflake hunt and talk about how snowflakes are all different just like we are. We will be reading some great books about snowflakes and snowy days. We will also be playing a mitten pattern game and a mitten matching game, matching Upper Case Letter mittens and Lower Case Letter Mittens.
Word Wall

A note from the teacher
Welcome back! I hope everyone enjoyed their break and all the snow. It was fun having a white Christmas but it really messed up our party plans,
so …..
Our Family Holiday Party that is now our New Year’s Party is this week on Thursday and Friday at 11:00 am for the morning class and 2:15 pm for the afternoon class. We will have a book exchange for the children. The book should be under $10, gender neutral, and wrapped. The children love getting to pick a new book to take with them, you might want to talk with them about the fact that they aren’t getting the book that they bring but they will get a new one.
Since it’s snowing while I write this if the Vancouver School District is closed or on a 2 hour late start, our school is cancelled for the day. You can call the school for updated info at 693-5614 and I will send out an email as soon as I find out if our schedule has been affected

This Week in the Sunshine Class
This week we are celebrating the start of a new year! So we will talk about the different months in a year and what happens in those months, like different types of weather, seasons, and holidays. We will explore winter weather next week . We will be making some New Year’s Party decorations and we will also be making foil prints. We will create some textured art and make a letter N collage.
Word Wall
For the next two weeks will be talking about the letter Nn. So look for items that begin with the letter N for our word wall. This is a great activity to share with your child and it gets them interested in letter recognition.
