Parent volunteers are welcome starting in November, once all the students have had a chance to settle in to their new routines.

Here are some ways parent volunteers can help in our classroom:

- wipe tables after snack/ crafts

- read to a child or small group
- help at the paint centre (help students write names on work, change paper as needed)
- make something at the craft centre
- play with a small group at any of the creative play centres
- model sorting and clean-up skills

- take down dry art, fold and place in student cubbies

- sit with children and participate in lesson
- talk with teachers (questions, coments) about your observations

- tidy dramatic play centre (house)
