Re: open arms

Dear Parents

Thank you to all the parents who came to the parent evening, I hope the rest can join us next time.

We had good conversation, I hope we can continue to support one another in this important and challenging parenting work!

One thing I want to make sure is that you all feel welcome and not judged.The t.v. and media talk or the gun play or even the how and when to offer choices to the children, are hard topics, and every family has their own way, the most important thing is to see how it impacts our children and decide from watching their behavior what the right approach is for each child.

I have strong feelings about some topics mainly the media, from observing the children play, but don't want anyone to feel that there is a t.v. police here.

With much thanks to you for bringing your children here.

Warmly

Maayan

Dear parents

Just a reminder that we will not get together this Saturday, as I previously wrote in the last e mail, instead we will have a parent night here on Tuesday 9/30 at 7:00 to 8:30 pm.

Our fall picnic/pot luck, will be held here at 11:00 on Thursday 10/16.

More details about the picnic later, but please let me know if you can come to either event.

The topic for the parent evening will be the challenges we have raising our children. I hope we can talk of some of the challenges we have as parents and also come up with some ways to help. I feel we can support each other and help one another so even if you are not feeling particular challenged at the moment your experience can help someone else. I learned a lot from everyone who came to the last parent evening. we will also experience water color painting, an activity the children do here at school.

Have a good weekend

I look forward to see some of you in the morning and next week

warmly
