This lovely sunny weather has created plenty of water play opportunities. Last week, we brought out the water table on the playground and this week we have filled buckets of water and with big paint brushes are painting the planter boxes outside. I have also watched students ride around the bike track on tricycles. Students remaining on the track has been an area that we have been working on all year, now with only a few reminders everyone stays on the road!
ESY or extended school year or summer school this year is from June 11-July 6 with no school on July 4th. ESY will take place at Greenbrook Elementary. If we have not already met regarding adding ESY service minutes, I will be reaching out to you individually and sending home amendment pages. The purpose of ESY is to prevent regression over an extended break or who have demonstrated a long recoupment period of previously taught skills. Recommended services will be provided during the classroom minutes, just as they are now. However, recommended service minutes could be different from what is offered during the school year and will be reflected on your amendment. As I mentioned above ESY is about maintaining previously taught skills. The summer session is typically very play based with lots of water play opportunities and working on their self-help skills with any necessary clothing changes from water play. There are typically different students from the other preschool classes who have also been recommended for ESY. Teachers and service providers are also be different. Transportation services do continue over ESY. The entire session goes by very quickly! Please let me know if you have any questions regarding ESY. I will do my best to answer them, if I don't have the answer I will reach out to find you an answer. Have a great day!
