"Almost all children respond to music. Music is an open-sesame, and if you can use it carefully and appropriately, you can reach into that child's potential for development." Dr. Clive Robbins

Announcements:
This week we will do Show and Tell on Wed and Thurs. We are talking about homes and what is in each room. Will you help your child bring a favorite item from either the kitchen or the bathroom.

Home Challenge: Next week we are participating in a state wide earthquake drill. I would like to encourage you to talk to your families about what you will do in the case of an earthquake. It would be a fun family activity to practice what you would do at home. Here is a website to check out for more information. http://www.shakeout.org/utah/ Do you have extra food and water to live off for a few days. It would also be good to talk about your fire escape plan.
