Updates

Wow! We have a lot of things going on at Olson in these last weeks before Christmas/Holiday break. We are finishing up our last rotation of Culture today and tomorrow. Hopefully, the children will be experts on holiday celebrations in England, Italy, Mexico, the USA, and Germany. Next week we will spend most of our time on presentations to teach the class about their heritage and culture. I am really looking forward to these exciting presentations the children keep talking about. Presentations will be in your native language, unless you have been asked to do them in both. We will also compare/contrast ourselves to another country and compare/contrast two countries we learned about. In addition, the children will be persuading their families which country would be best to visit.
We have had a lot of children sick these past two weeks. The flu is passing through our school/classes so please remember to keep your child home if they are sick. When they come to school they are so likely to pass it along to everyone. We are very mobile throughout the day, and these children are all over the place spreading germs. We remind them to do lots of handwashing throughout the day here at school. If your family hasn't been touched yet, consider yourself lucky! Wishing all our families well.
Mrs. Montes
