Is Your Child Ready for Kindergarten? June 17, 2009

Filed under: Graduation, Kindergarten Readiness, Parenting Articles — cupertinolittlepeople @ 12:10 am

CB028871Congratulatoins to the Class of 2009!  On Friday, June 12, we graduated 24 kids from Little People.   And I’m very proud to say that we made a big difference in each child’s life.  We’re confident that each graduate is kindergarten ready!   It’s very hard to let them go but many of them promised to come back and say hi. 

The following link contains very helpful information regarding to Kindergarten Readiness.  It talks about kindergarten reading skills, ways to help your child to grow his/her literacy skills, your child’s emotion, your child’s fear, good manners, etc.  A must read!

Swine Flu Alert April 27, 2009

Filed under: Health Alerts, News & Updates — cupertinolittlepeople @ 1:16 pm

We are taking extra precaution to ensure that the Swine flu (H1N1) does not spread to our classrooms.  Therefore, we would like to ask parents to remind your kids to wash hands with soap and water before, during and after school.  We encourage your child to stay home if he/she is sick.  Here are some symptoms that you should watch for:  fever, sore throat, coughing, sneezing, body aches, headaches, lack of appetite.  Some people have reported diarrhea and vomiting associated with swine flu.  The symptoms are similar to a regular flu.  However, extra precautions should be taken, since H1N1 virus is highly contagious and there is NO vaccine available to prevent the virus.

 

Please visit the following links for more information about Swine Flu:
