How Many Days Before Students Come Back to School?

"You Light Up My Life"

I like the way you've learned to learn.

I like the way you wait your turn.

I like the way you've begun to share.

I like the way you've grown to care.

I like the way you make your plan

And that you say, "I know I can."

I like the way you sing and play,

And that you know you're special today and everyday.

I like the way you create and learn to print your name.

In many ways you're different and yet you're still the same.

Little children who have come so far, and still have far to go

Can you see what you've done for ME?

Yes, I think you know

YOU LIGHT UP MY LIFE! (Author Unknown)



Love,

Mrs. Aldridge

Pre-K I Love You Rituals

Why Do I Love You Rituals? There are four goals: I Love You Rituals optimize your child's brain for success at school and in life, increase your learning potential and effectiveness through touch, create loving rituals that hold families together even through the roughest times (you are a family at home and we have a "school family" here at school), and I Love You Rituals strengthen the bond between adults and children that insulates children from drugs, violence and peer pressure, laying the foundation for mental and emotional health. It is also interesting to compare and contrast the differences in the traditional rhymes and our I Love You Ritual Changes, a long with some great connections to phonemic awareness. We will connect with many I Love You Rituals in class and take time to share with you within our Pre-K Poetry Journals.
