Brown Bags…..
We would like the children to bring items back in the bag that we can sort into color or shape or add to a class mural. I will have an example of items on a board that I have in my brown bag displayed on our board Tuesday. In my brown bag I have a marble, ribbon, a sticker, a photo negative and some scrapbook letters. (These items won’t be returned so make sure they aren’t too valuable.) We will create three murals discussing which art process we want to start with and then add to it. I will group the canvas by the children that come MWF, TH, and afternoon. Each group will get to start a canvas and then we will switch with the other group. So all the groups will add to each canvas! I’m very excited about the process of this.
Chevy’s Fundraiser
Family Fun Night at Chevy’s is this week. Wednesday, February 25th from 11:00 – close. I put flyers in everyone’s boxes. We will receive 20% of the proceeds during this event.
The Hough Parade
The Hough Parade is parade that takes place downtown Vancouver on St. Patrick’s Day. Our school is going to walk in it this year, which I am very pleased with the sense of community and we get to wear our purple shirts. We will release at 11:30 that day so everyone wishing to participate or watch the parade may. We will meet on the corner of McLoughlin & Daniels Streets at 12:00 to check-in. The parade begins at 12:30. The theme is Yes We Can. There will be no afternoon class that day as we will all walk in the parade. Parents will need to accompany their kids if they are walking with our group. You can bring strollers or wagons, maybe even decorated ones!

This Week in the Sunshine Class
We will extend the Click Clack Moo series by reading another book by Doreen Cronin Thump, Quack, Moo . In this book the cows paint the barn and paint pictures of cows on the side of the barn, so we will finish decorating our barn. We are also going to start the process of sorting our bags and creating our murals.

A note from the teacher
Click Clack Moo
It’s finally here! So here’s the lowdown, the play starts at 9:45 & 11:45, they will seat us no later than 9:30 & 11:30 as a group so it is very important to arrive early and allow time to park and walk to the theater. You all received maps with the smart park address. (I would give it to you again but my map is at school). Please take your child to the restroom before the seat us. And just FYI all the children that are attending are four (or at least that’s what they think). There is no school on this Thursday & Friday, the days of the play.

(These items won’t be returned so make sure they aren’t too valuable.) We will create three murals discussing which art process we want to start with and then add to it. I will group the canvas by the children that come MWF, TH, and afternoon. Each group will get to start a canvas and then we will switch with the other group. So all the groups will add to each canvas! I’m very excited about the process of this.

This Week in the Sunshine Class
We are going to paint a barn this week in the Sunshine Class, we have a big box that we will paint red and use it as our barn. We will also continue to write the other classes back and forth, we started this last week with the Busybee class and will extend it this week to some other classes.
Word Wall
This week’s letter of the week is L again this week. So it has been a good letter, so far we have seen these words.

A note from the teacher
It has been a great week! The children loved learning about nocturnal animals. I’m sure if you ask them they would sing the bat song for you.
It was wonderful to see you all at the school Read In and the Dad’s Breakfast. Thank you all for squeezing it in to your busy schedules. If you haven’t seen the All School Art projects that we created I think they will be in the main foyer by the preschool office. Our class worked on the one that looks a little more chaotic.
In the weeks following our class is going to begin to work on some art creations of our own. We will start off by sending a brown bag home with each child this week. We would like the children to bring items back in the bag that we can sort into color or shape or add to a class mural. (These items won’t be returned so make sure they aren’t too valuable.) We will create three murals discussing which art process we want to start with and then add to it. I will group the canvas by the children that come MWF, TH, and afternoon.
