Scholastic Book Fair

Over the past few years we have brought the Scholastic book fair to our school during Parent-Teacher Conferences.  I want to thank everyone who came to the fair and brought books for their children, themselves and for their grandchildren.  Reading books is a life long mission I have for all who enter through our doors.   Thanks to your contributions we have earned over $1000 in books for our school library. Thank you thank you!

Mrs Naberhaus deserves the biggest thank you of all for lining up workers, getting books out and managing the book fair.  Her passion is books!  If you could see her this week is has been doing cart wheels in the hallway by the library excited to have so many dollars worth of new books for all of our Schaller-Crestland kids!

Thanks Again for contributing to our book fair, keeping our mission alive and keeping Mrs. Naberhaus excited and busy with new books in the library!!!

Dental Health Month

 Cody was her patient. 
He showed the class how to open wide!
 
 Sally Naberhaus, dental hygentist, visited Mrs. Grieme's preschool room to talk about Dental Health Month.  She brought in tools, various flavors of toothpaste, and her uniform to show the students. They learned about taking care of their teeth, healthy foods that they should eat, and what it will be like when they visit the dentist.  Sally showed them her uniform, mask, and goggles so they won't be scared when they go.  Sally left every student with a toothbrush, toothpaste, sugarfree gum and candy.

Valeria and mom, Alma take time to pose for a picture 

On Thursday, February 2nd the preschoolers and their parents enjoyed a fun night of Math!  They came into the classroom and listened to the story If You Give a Mouse a Cookie.  From there the children and their parents enjoyed many activities.  There was a cookie tasting station where they graphed their favorite cookie, they counted chocolate chips and found the correct number, colored a moue paper for a class book, made a mouse puppet, read Math books in the library, played with playdough and cut out various shapes, and enjoyed a yummy snack of milk and cookies.

Time spent in child care is “prime time.” Time spent in early childhood programs is "prime time."
The time spent in child care is the time when young  
children’s brains are actively developing their intellectual, 
social, emotional, and physical skills.  
Some programs offer part-time preschool followed by  
“child care” in the afternoon, but the reality is that  
children are growing and learning throughout the day, 
regardless of where they are located. Early care and 
education are inseparable. All of the time spent in early care  
and education should be “quality time” and in the company of  
adults who are skilled, knowledgeable, and nurturing. 


For the 2012-2013 school year your child may be ready to join one of our programs.
Please start thinking as round up is around the corner.


We will be sending out letters and posting more information when we have a date set for round up!
