Parent/Teacher Conferences.

As you may have figured out by now, I am only able to work half days so I leave for the day at 12:30 pm. My doctor has advised this, and within the next two months I will be on full maternity leave for 8 weeks. So there have been some changes in staffing, and consequently there has also been a lull in communication, since I go home before most children are picked up.
First of all, I want to make sure communication lines stay open. Even though I am not at the center after 12:30, I am available for meetings or I can be reached by phone. If you have any questions about your child's day, please feel free to call me or schedule a meeting in the afternoons to talk. I also plan to utilize the blog as much as possible to discuss what we are learning and any news or announcements.
Our daily routine is still the same; in the morning, I am still able to teach circle time and work on science and handwriting projects with the class. In the afternoon, Maisie is in the class to keep the afternoon routine going. We have shortened rest time quite a bit by not laying down until around 1:00 pm, and we have been trying to add as much to the morning, when I am there, as possible.
Over the course of the next month, we will begin fall conferences. We realize that half of our current class is new this fall, and we are at all different starting points with our students this year. The parent/teacher conferences will allow us to start out the year on the same pages, with open communication and a clear goal for each child. More info about dates and times will follow.
Lastly, if you would like to have direct contact from me every day, or even once a week, then give me your email address or email me at kate@celebrationcenter.com. I would love to correspond with you via email about your child's progress.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them!
Thank you, Kate.
