November has settled in and so has cooler weather. Please be sure to send outer layers. I can’t guarantee they will wear them, but, I will do my best to have them at least start on. If you have stray gloves and mittens we would love them for the mitten bag. We keep a bag at school with mismatched items for cold days. The perfect place for those loose ones with no mate.
We have started a community helper/safety unit. Currently we are talking about firefighters, and will expand into other community jobs in the next few weeks. It is a great time to start working on kids learning phone number and address, as well as knowing parents full names. Additionally doing fire drills at home so that kids know what the smoke alarm sounds like and what to do if it goes off. Decide on a family meeting place outside and practice ways to exit your home.
Thank you for all you do for our community.
Kindly,
Teacher Allisen
