Class tomorrow, 3/21

Hello Everyone.
Class tomorrow, Monday 3/21, will be at Parkside in our normal classroom.
Thursday 3/24, Parkside is using the room so I've scheduled us to have class at Ryder park.  Unfortunately, it looks like the weather continues to be wet through the week. 
So, NO RYDER PARK Thursday.  Instead, we'll meet at Belmont library.  That way, if the rain clears up or it isn't too wet, we can play at the adjoining playground.  Otherwise, we can enjoy the 10:30 storytime and visit there.
Thanks for your patience with all of these days Parkside has needed the room.  As of now, there aren't any days in April.  (We'll see!)
Another date to mark on your calanders is spring break, April 4-8th.  The Adult School office is open but no classes that week.
I look forward to seeing you soon.
-Elizabeth

The tragedy in Japan...

We have many classmates who have come to us from Japan or have family in Japan.  I want to let those friends know that you are in my thoughts and I am sending well wishes for your loved ones who may be affected by what is going on in Japan.  I hope our class/friends can be of support.
My friend directed me to Zazzle (a fun, design-your-own t-shirt site) which is donating $ to Japan relief:

I hope to see you all Thursday at Parkside.

Love,
Elizabeth

Monday, March 14

Hello Everyone!

So, tomorrow is one of the days that Parkside needs to use our room this month.  So, we are scheduled to meet at Cassanova Playground, 4012 Casanova Drive, San Mateo, CA 94403, at 10:00.  We will play, have snack and I will do one goodbye/parachute circle @11:30ish.
Hopefully, the weather will cooperate!  If not, we can meet at Redwood Shores Library (unfortunately the Hillsdale branch doesn't open until 1:00!) 399 Marine Pkwy
Redwood City, CA 94065-5236, at 10:00.

I could stand for some outside play and sunshine, so cross your fingers!
In case you don't join me at the park, class will be as usual on Thursday.
Thanks,
Elizabeth

Monday, March 8

We will have class in our regular classroom tomorrow at Parkside.
However, class will start at 9:30 rather than 9:00 b/c I have to pick up my car from the mechanic after walking my girls to school, before driving to San Mateo.
Hope to see you tomorrow.
I'm off to make playdough!

Thursday, March 3rd

Hi Everyone.

We had an AMAZING class on Monday with so many "regulars" returning as well as fun new friends!

This Thursday, March 3rd, Parkside is having their picture day and will be using the room we normally use.  Since the weather looked potentially rainy, we will meet at FOSTER CITY library instead.  There is a fun story time at 10:30 and/or I can read books and will have a simple (non-messy) project.

Thank you once again for your flexibility!  This month I'll be focusing on reading, language and literacy for 0-3 yr. olds.  I'll have some hand outs at class, although much prefer to post them here to save paper etc.  Unfortunately, I am a bit technologically challenged, so have to wait a couple more weeks until my husband returns to the country to fix our scanner!  Hope to see you Thursday!
