 Happy December Families!  

The children have been getting back in the groove throughout this cold week!  We are excited to see the children ready to present their prehistory presentations.  If your child is ready to present please advise them to let us know so we can add them to the schedule.   We will be exploring Winter Holidays and the History of Language over the next couple of weeks as we continue to explore history.
