5. Please look real hard...I need you to see me as I really am...just a child.

7.  Please listen closely...I need you to really hear what I have to say.

8.  Please coach me well...I need you to teach me how to speak up for myself.

9.  Please treat others with respect...I'm watching you and want to learn how to do the same.

10. Please stop buying me everything...Your one-on-one time and attention are far more valuable.

It is warm and sunny outside.  Hardly our usual February weather!  But, lucky us - the children are loving it!

In January we welcomed Critter Caravan to the school.  They come each year to share their wonderful and exotic pets.  Some of us were very brave and held "Lucky",  a boa constrictor of large dimension!

Another January treat was our 2nd Annual Puppet Show!  Miss Avril, Miss Bobbi and Miss Kate put on The Very Grouchy Ladybug.  We are anxiously awaiting our next puppet show.  What will Miss Cheryl, Miss Norma, Miss Shannon and Mr. Erik choose to put on in February??

Miss Julie has handed out individual School Photos!  She maintains that we have the best looking preschoolers in Connecticut, right here at CAST!

Believe it or not it's time for re-registration for the 2012-2013 school year.  Please see Sue Champagne if you have any questions.  Where does the time go?
