News: We have had a great start to our school year. These past few weeks we have been learning about school vocabulary (pencil, paper, crayon) and have been playing “Little Mouse” a game to make learning colors engaging. We have also begun working on our letter of the week. Miss Ruth and Mr. Ty are doing a large group activity combining therapies on Thursdays and the students are really enjoying it. Library checkout will be starting the week September 6^th. Please help your child bring their book back regularly as we will be checking out weekly.
