Parents ,
This week we had a lot of fun learning, reading, and singing about Arctic animals.
We ended our special week with our teddy bears, building a cave and an arctic sensory table .

January 18-21 2022

 


Twinkle, twinkle my little Stars!
How I wonder what you will become.

Martin Luther King Prayer Service
What is a Hero?
Who is your Hero?  
How does it feel when someone is kind to you?
How does it feel when someone is unkind to you?
How can we fix it if you were unkind?
Dr. King is a Hero because he wanted to create a more peaceful and loving world!
Matthew 22:36-39
"Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and Mind.  This is the first and most important commandment......."

Dr. King wanted us to have helpful hands to:
Love ,
Help ,
Give High fives,
To fix what is broken,
To build something new,
To hug,
To share!
