Your child needs to keep a complete change of clothes at school at all times. Accidents happen and we want your little one to be comfortable.
Be sure to label your child's clothes. When an item comes home changed, please replace it the next day. Also remember to change out the clothes kept at school as your child grows and the seasons change.

KINDERGARTEN READINESS
A main purpose of Pre-K is to prepare children for the big world of Kindergarten. We work hard getting ready for next year. Our stories grow longer throughout the year, we will learn to write our names, and (shhhh! don’t tell anyone how smart we are) we will be able to sound out some words!
Several times during the spring months, we will be “changing” teachers and classes. Sometimes Ms. Crystal and I will go to another class to teach while the other class’ teachers come to the Bear room. Sometimes the children will go to another class while Ms. Crystal and I teach the other teachers’ class in our room. This will help us get used to lining up, changing classes, and obeying different authorities in our lives for next year in kindergarten.

Independence
A goal this year is to become independent in as many ways as possible. We probably won't learn to drive, but we surely do want to be ready for kindergarten.
Two areas in which we need help are clothes and shoes.

- Please dress your child in clothes he or she can take care of alone when using the restroom. Elastic waistbands are our friends.
- Please provide shoes that don’t need tying throughout the day.

Toys, Food, or Other Personal Belongings
PLEASE, NO Toys, Food, or Other Personal Belongings
To avoid allergies, sharing issues, safety concerns, broken and lost things, please do not allow your child to bring toys or other items from home (other than blanket and pillow, if needed).
Birthday and special treats for the whole class are allowed. Please let us know in advance so two parents don’t send something the same day.
In all cases, avoid peanuts, peanut butter, gum, and hard candy.
