January Newsletter
Happy New Year!!!!!! I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday break and new year! I want to thank each and every one of you and your children for the fabulous gifts I received this holiday season. That was very thoughtful and much appreciated. From the bottom of my heart, I say thank you once again.
I love working with your children and cannot ask for a better group of parents/guardians to work with as well.
Thank you.
Ms. Sullivan

CookShop
CookShop promotes nutrition, health and obesity prevention through hands-on lessons and workshops.
The children will be working on a series of sensory exploration and cooking activities to foster children's enjoyment and consumption of healthy foods and their appreciation for nutrition.
This is a six-unit, 18 lesson curricula that will be implemented in our class over the months from January to May.
I will need 3 parent volunteers every Wednesday from 9:45 to 11:45. Please write to me in a note or send me an email, letting me know if you are available to help out. This will begin next week 1/11/17.
