Many kids spend the third Monday of February sleeping in late and enjoying a day off from school. With an extended weekend in the future, it’s a perfect time to explain to your children the full history about Presidents’ Day. We can help you get started:
Creating a Grammar Wall With Your Children
When it comes to learning the details of language, math or science, there is no reason why your children should look at this as a chore. Creating a grammar wall at home is an opportunity to make learning more like a favorite game. Here are some artistic and exciting ways to get started.
How to Write a Letter to Your Future Adult Child
Kids grow up fast and parents often get too caught up in daily activities to think about their child’s future. Writing down all your experiences, hopes, and lessons for your future adult child will help give them a better understanding of how you were at that age and what they should expect in the coming years. Your child is young now, but what do you want to tell them when they become an adult?
Don’t Miss Our 100th Day of School
Don’t miss school January 12, when we celebrate the 100th day of school. Water balloon toss, relay races, and other activities are planned for students, so let’s have perfect attendance January 12!
Fitness for Kids
Exercise keeps kids physically and mentally healthy. Children need at least one hour of physical activity a day to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Getting active improves the immune system, makes bones stronger, and decreases risks of diseases later in life. Starting exercise at a young age can prevent certain types of cancers and will help blood pressure and bone density in the future. From rollerblading to joining a sports team, there are many options to get kids out and about.
Don’t Forget!
On December 20, students will have a 1 p.m. dismissal and there will be no after-school care.
Giving Back Year-Round
The holiday season is often called the season of giving. We remind our children that it is important to give to others less fortunate than us around Thanksgiving and Christmas because not everyone gets presents or has warm clothes to wear in the cold months. Parents can carry on the season of giving and make it a year-round occasion that kids will look forward to.
Thanksgiving Feast
Parents and guardians are invited to join students in the school cafeteria on Tuesday, November 21, for our annual Thanksgiving Feast.
Correction
We previously gave the wrong dates for the Thanksgiving Feast and Thanksgiving Break. The correct information is:
Thanksgiving Feast – November 21
Thanksgiving Break – November 22-24
We apologize for the error.
Reading Under the Stars
On November 17, from 5:30-7:30 p.m., Liberty students and their families are invited to get into their favorite cowboy gear and gather ’round the campfire for storytelling, a puppet show, some cowboy chow, and more.
5 Ways to Eat Healthy
Eating healthy is essential for kids’ growth and physical development. The right nutrients help to gain more energy, improve mental performance, and boost the immune system. Just saying “avoid junk food” is not enough to convince kids to make healthy choices. These tips for healthy eating will get you and your child on the right path.
Let’s Put the Spotlight on Students
Parents are invited to spend 45 minutes in their student’s classroom, observing Liberty’s instructional methods and getting a better understanding of their child’s academic life.
