February Wellness Newsletter
Happy February Students, Parents and Staff of EPE!!
I hope everyone had a healthy and happy January!! It was so great to see the students return after their Christmas break and settle back into a routine.
For January’s Wellness, we continued to be as active as possible. If weather permitted, we headed outdoors. Games such as soccer, varieties of tag and capture the flag were played.
Stories were told in our Sharing Circles and the Novel Read Alouds were continued to help with achieving AR goals.
The month of February brings Valentine’s Day. Some of the classes will be designing Valentine notes for Heritage and Parkview residents. Residents were so excited and grateful for the Christmas notes they received and they are displaying them year round in their rooms.I am confident the Valentine notes will be displayed as well.
Wishing you a wonderful month of February!! Students will receive an extended break as there is Teachers’ Convention and Family Day. Hopefully the temperature is kind and we can all spend some time outdoors. May you all be happy and healthy!!
*Remember “TOGETHER” means:
Trying our best
Obeying the rules
Getting our work done
Expressing our ideas
