Dear Parents,

Welcome to TK! We had such a wonderful start to the new school year. The children are acclimating to their new environment and routine. I am excited to spend the mornings and early afternoons with the children this year.

The children worked with paint, kinetic sand, and stencils this week. They enjoyed exploring dramatic play as well as the block area and light table.

Hooray for our first full week of school! This week, the children continued to explore Rosh Hashanah. We created Rosh Hashanah art and talked about how we celebrate Rosh Hashanah. We discussed where a shofar comes from and looked at pictures of rams and kudus. The children also learned about the special foods we eat on Rosh Hashanah and the significance of each one. We read some Rosh Hashanah books: What’s the Buzz? by Allison Ofanasky and Rosh Hashanah Guess Who by Ariella Stern.

Please send your child to school in sneakers to ensure their safety on the playground.
Please send spare clothing for your child’s cubby (if you haven’t done so already).
We are lucky to have strong AC in the classroom. The children are sometimes cold. Please send a sweatshirt to keep at school.
Please make sure that girls wear shorts underneath skirts and dresses.

Thank you!

Best wishes for a peaceful and restful Shabbos!
