Preschool September 2013 Newsletter


Welcome to Preschool!!! It is great to see so many familiar faces returning!  Also, a big welcome to Florentina and her family. 

All of your children will be bringing home an informational sheet, please fill it out (even in Chinese) and return it as soon as possible.  This will help me better plan lessons and class projects that interest your children.  Last year the class decided to learn about sharks for 4 months and I would like to have your children also complete an interest based project. 

Right now our class consists of 9 students but hopefully we will be adding more friends as the year goes!  I look forward to a wonderful year teaching all of your children!

Important Notes



1. English Homework goes home once a month.  Please complete it and return it by the date listed on the front of the packet.  It is important that your child completes both their English and Chinese homework as it supplements the school curriculum and will greatly help them prepare for their upcoming interviews next year.
2. Please make your child is able to remove their clothing on their own for naptime (i.e. no zippers or buttons on the back of dresses). 
3. Reading at home greatly benefits your child’s ability to learn English and Chinese.  Please try and take some time every couple of days and read with them.
