The first week of school was great! Fran and I were amazed at how well the children transitioned into the classroom and adjusted to the routines.
    This week we will introduce some of our art tool such as glue, paints, easel and scissors. We will have a cutting bin to help practice scissor skills.
     We will read books about ourselves, friends, families and emotions during the month of September. Some of my favorite books are:
