WEEK OF MARCH 7 TO MARCH 11

Dear Parents,

This week we will continue working with the letter Tt. As we already mentioned in our last blog, we will continue with rhyming words and word families.

Last week we began working on how to tell time to the hour. We will continue practicing this week. The children will be playing a variety of games to help them understand how to tell time and the different kinds of clocks around us. They are having a lot of fun doing this. Encourage them at home also to tell you the time to the hour that appears on any clock that is in your house.

PARENT FORUM MEETINGS: As we did last year, we are scheduling Parent Forum meetings by grade level to meet with the Head of School and Board President and discuss anything that parents may want to bring to their attention--kudos, suggestions, and concerns. Please exercise this option to make your voice heard. Our parents are our partners in education, and working together we can achieve remarkable things with our students. The Kindergarten meeting is going to be held on Wednesday, March 16^th from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. at the Library.

Family Night is this coming Friday, March 11^th!!!!!
The Music department will be devoting their class time this week to constructing musical instruments for the BATUCADA SAMBA GRITÓN group presentation on Family Night. Please make sure that your child brings with him/her the following materials for your child’s choice of instrument by Monday morning:
For Drums: An Large Empty Milk Can with its lid (preferably “CETECO” brand, but any will do) OR a medium size plastic bucket, AND a broom stick (with out the broom).
For Maracas: Two small empty cans OR two small Agua Azul bottles.
Please send your child’s materials labeled with your child’s name. If you have extras of any of these materials, please donate them to share with the children who may not be able to bring them. If your child has any stickers or drawings that they would like to use for decorating their instrument, please encourage them to bring them or put them in the bag along with the materials.
We hope you can all join us for a wonderful fun filled evening. 

On Friday, March 11^th, we will be going on a field trip to Book Master. Please make sure your child arrives to school promptly. We will depart at 8:30 a.m. If you are unable to make it on time for our departure you will have to drop off your child at Book Master (the one located by the airport). Thanks for your understanding.
