WELCOME TO THE WHITE ROOM

The White Room had a great week learning about Community Helpers. 

We enjoyed learning about different Community Helpers and what they do.  We read books about community helpers and played a guessing game about what hat belonged to what community helper. In our imaginative play centers we dressed up like Firefighters, practiced our caring and Veterinarian skills to help sick and hurt animals, and baked delicious treats in our classroom bakery.  

At our table centers we counted different types of community helper vehicles, made firefighter crafts, practiced writing and tracing and learned how to make 'Mat Man'.  

Since the snow this week caused us to cancel on Thursday and we couldn't have our Open House we have rescheduled it for Wednesday of this week on Wednesday from 4:30-5:00.  You should have received an email from Corinne, our principal.  I hope to see you then!

Next week we will be sending home a permission slip for students to be able to see and pet Maple, the therapy dog that visits our school.  Please be sure to read it and sign it if you want your child to be able to participate in Maple's visits.
