Ms. Robyn's 3 year old preschool class have spent time working on Measurements this week. The kids measured their foot drawn on Black paper with colored blocks. They counted how many blocks it took to go around their foot. They also measured with spoons and cups counting how many spoonfuls of sand it took to fill a measuring cup

Due to the Current Weather Forecast, Apollo Early Childhood Center will be closed Friday, December 23rd.
We will reopen on Wednesday, December 28th. Wishing all of our families a safe and wonderful Holiday Break.
The students in the SXI classroom at Apollo started a school store this year, where they are selling yummy treats to the staff. The Snack Cart provides many amazing opportunities for the students. Daily the students participate in activities related to the Snack Cart. Monday the students pass out order forms; this allows them to focus on gross and fine motor skills along with communication skills. Tuesday, students get the bags together by cutting out thank you notes and gluing them on to the bags, working on fine motor and math skills. On Wednesday the students work on packing up the orders, working on fine motor and math skills. Thursday, the students pass out the orders, working on fine and gross motor skills along with communication. THANK YOU to the staff for your support.

Utilization of low-tech AAC is helpful to facilitate growth in expressive language. We had fun requesting specific ornaments to decorate the tree during speech therapy!
In GSRP the Blue room invited the Yellow room over for a Thanksgiving friendship snack and movement activities. Students practiced their writing, art, gross motor and social emotional skills through this project. New friendships were made and fun was had by all!

It's National School Social Work Week, and at HVS, we have some of the best. These professionals help students deal with mental health and behavioral challenges and provide academic and classroom support. They also help in developing education policies and work with teams to support crisis interventions. Thank you, HVS social workers! #HVSProud
We're sending a great big 'Thank You!' to all HVS bus drivers and transportation staff today.
