We had the BEST time learning with our 5 Senses last week!!! And wrapping up with a 5 Senses discovery day full of popcorn, pajamas, and banana splits on Friday was the FABULOUS!

Veteran's Day - Wednesday, November 11

We have several activities planned both school-wide, and in our classroom, to teach our babies the importance of honoring and remember all that have served, or are serving our country! We would like EVERYONE at Central to wear RED, WHITE, AND BLUE on Wednesday! Also, if you, or someone you know, is serving/has served and they would like to be our Mystery Reader on Wednesday please contact me ASAP.

ORIGINAL WORKS - Art Work Fundraiser

If you did not turn in orders on Friday it is not too late... Orders are due Monday, November 9...so look and order quickly!!!

Central will partner with the South Plains Food Bank again this year for the U Can SHARE Food Drive. We will collect food donations in the classroom all this next week. The class with the highest number of donations will get to appear on KCBD News Channel 11. Any type of food donations can be made throughout the week, but the following are suggested items of need:

Monday - dry cereal/oatmeal

Tuesday - peanut butter & jelly

Wednesday - pre-packaged snacks

Thursday - canned vegetables/fruit

Friday - canned soup

* Please NO glass jars!

We need some Mystery Readers...the kids have been asking when our next one is coming to visit!

Sign ups are for Wednesdays at 9:50 a.m. By signing up to be a Mystery Reader you will be asked to read your favorite book to our class on the Wednesday morning that you choose. You can then leave if you are needing to return to work/activities, OR you are invited to stay and help with a small group during learning stations, and then join your child for lunch from 10:55-11:25 if you would like.

If Wednesday JUST DOES NOT WORK for you, and you would still like to Participate in our Mystery Reader program, just let me know what week you are interested in and I can usually make schedule arrangements with you to move the day.

Who can be a Mystery Reader???? Mom, Dad, Grandparent, Family Member, Family Friend, Other Lubbock-Cooper Employees, Athletes, Coaches......anyone who LOVES reading to sweet babies!!!

Thank you for working together to fill our babies full of stories, laughter, and love! Visit the link below to sign up for a reading spot:
