Dear OLM Pre-K families,
We hope that you enjoyed your week off for winter break.  We will continue with our last week of our theme Construction Zone.  It has been a lot of fun and we sure have enjoyed seeing all the fun things that you have made with your children for show and tell.  If your child missed their day or were not able to get their item made, please make something with your child and send it in this week. 

We will have a review week for our alpha friends this week.  Our class will be doing some fun story extensions for our story about the Three little pigs.  We will also have fun exploring the nursery rhyme Row, row, row, your boat. 

With the beginning of Lent, we have been talking about being kind.  We have read social stories and shared ways to be kind with our families and friends.  Please check out some of their ideas on our outside wall.  We will continue to talk about Lent and how we can be closer to Jesus by praying, giving and fasting.  We will begin learning the Stations of the Cross.  There will be an all school Mass on Friday in the Auditorium.  Please have your child wear their OLM t-shirt if it is their day to attend class. 

Sign ups for Parent Teacher conferences are posted in the class.  If the days and/or time slots are not good for you, please let me know and I am happy to arrange a different day. 

I hope that you have been busy selling See's Candy.  Please remember that those are due soon. 

If your child will be attending Kindergarten at OLM next year, the Kindergarten information night is on March 7th.  Please plan to attend.  If you are not sure, please plan to attend and hear about it before you decide to go elsewhere.  There will be a drawing for a free registration given out that night for attending. 

It looks like a very cold week this week and some rain.  Please send in a warm jacket for your child to wear when we go outside.

Thank you,
Mrs. Veronica
