Text Box: Project News   We are still working on our transportation project and are currently focusing on trains. We are finishing up decorating our train engine and then we will be using it as a prop in our housekeeping area. The children seem really excited about it and we think it will be a great tool to help us work on sharing and making compromises. Ms. Liz will be going to Chicago at the end of the month (January 24th-28th) to attend a conference. She will be taking the Amtrak train to get there and looks forward to sharing her pictures and adventures when she returns. If you need anything while Ms. Liz is gone, please see Ms. Amy or Ms. Jess.   Winter Weather   Please remember to send hats and gloves with your child daily as we will continue to go outside if the weather is above 20 degrees. Also, in case of inclement weather, check out Channel 2 and Channel 5 for possible school closings. If it reads “Snow Schedule” then Discovery will be open for Extended Day only children. If it just says Discovery School, then school will be closed entirely.   Reminders   Thank you to the parents that have joined us for special activities in our classroom. We love having parents in our room and invite you to sign up on the bulletin board if you would like to read to the class, cook with the class, or share a special talent.   ~Ms. Liz, Ms. Amy, and Ms. Jess~
