                                        SHARING IS CARING
                                        During the months of November and December, Litchfield Park Preschool is emphasizing
                                        “Sharing is Caring” with students, understanding the joy of sharing with others less
                                        fortunate. Sharing and giving provides preschoolers with the understanding that it’s not
                                        how much we give but how much love we put into giving that emphasizes the values of
                                        patience and tolerance. We are supporting two causes this season including a Holiday
                                        Basket Food Drive and a Joy to Socks Donation Drive (details in December newsletter).

                                             Watch for the “Parent Praise” stationery.
                                            Turkey stationery will be sent home for you to write words of praise or
                                            encouragement to your child. The note will be displayed on our “Parent Praise”
                                            board. Ms. Seye will read the student praise notes to the class. Please place your
                                            child’s praise note in the homework box located on the sign in/out table.

                                            Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
                                              Breakfast provides our children with the energy and nutrients that lead to increased
                                            concentration in the classroom. It also provides energy for activities during the
                                            morning and helps to prevent mid-morning slumps.

                                            Please continue working with your child at home.
                                            Classroom learning reinforced by parent involvement builds a strong team to  enrich
                                            your preschooler’s early childhood education.
