I
hope that everyone was able to stay safe and warm on our SNOW DAY! I am very
excited to have the snow on the ground. That means snow angels, snowmen, and
just plain FUN!
With
all this snow comes craziness when getting ready for recess. Yes, we still go
outside if the temperature is above zero. J Here are some helpful
hints for winter recess:
1. PLEASE remember to send a
winter/heavy coat, SNOW BOOTS (or waterproof/warm shoes), hat, mittens/gloves, and
snow pants. (An extra pair of socks isn’t a bad idea too! No one likes to wear
wet socks.)
2. Be sure to label your
child’s winter gear with a name or tie colored string on each item. Anything to
help your child and myself identify whom the owner is. (Many kiddos wear black
snow pants size small J )
3. Mittens / gloves work
best if they are not cotton. Mittens and gloves that can handle water or melted
snow are best. Kiddos hands get very cold, especially in little cotton gloves
that are soaking wet.
4. Don’t forget to pack a pair of tennis shoes in your child’s backpack for gym & music
5. Students who don’t wear
snow pants or snow boots will not be allowed to play in the snow. He or she
will have to stay on the blacktop during recess time.
Thank
you for helping me keep the kiddos safe & WARM this winter season!
Hope
you all enjoyed the SNOW DAY! School starts back up in the morning.
