January 17, 2014 Dear Prairieview Parents and Guardians, Now that winter has officially arrived and the temperature and snow are falling, please remember the 5 points. Our students have outside recess on most winter days. It is important that they be dressed for the snow. In order to play on the field or playground equipment on snowy days, children must have “5 points,” which are snow pants, boots, gloves/mittens, a winter coat, and a hat. The blacktop provides a play area for children who are not dressed for the snow. Thank you for your help. Welcoming a new year provides a great time for reflection and thankfulness. One way we show thankfulness for one another at Prairieview is by embracing our new FISH Philosophy. The FISH Philosophy is comprised of four major ideas: Being There for one another, Choosing A Great Attitude, finding ways to Play, and taking time to Make Somebody’s Day. We take time each and every week to celebrate one another with a FISH ticket.

We as a staff would like to take this opportunity to celebrate all of the families at Prairieview for participating in the FISH Philosophy even if you weren’t aware of it. Thank you for Being Present in our school community, finding ways to Play by attending all of our extra events, Choosing a Great Attitude and working as a team with our school staff, and most importantly Making Our Day by sending your kids to Prairieview and allowing us to make a difference in their lives. If you would like to participate further in our building philosophy and acknowledge a Prairieview staff member, we invite you to fill out a FISH ticket available in the front office. Together we will continue to make Prairieview a great place for kids! Sincerely, The Prairieview Staff

Estimados Padres y/o encargados de Prairieview, Ahora que oficialmente ha llegado el invierno y la temperatura y la nieve caen, recuerde los 5 puntos de vestimenta. Nuestros alumnos tienen receso fuera casi todos los días de invierno. Es importante que sean vestidos para la nieve. Para poder jugar en el equipo de campo o infantil en días nieve, los niños deben tener "5 puntos", que son pantalones de nieve, botas, guantes/mitones, un abrigo de invierno y un sombrero. El área de brea proporciona un área de juegos para niños que no están vestidos para la nieve. Gracias por su ayuda. La bienvenida a un nuevo año ofrece un gran momento para la reflexión y la acción de gracias. Una manera de mostrar agradecimiento por el otro en Prairieview es aceptar nuestra filosofía de los nuevos peces (FISH). La filosofía de FISH se compone de cuatro ideas principales: Estar Presente el Uno Para el otro, Elegir una Gran Actitud, Buscar Maneras de Jugar, y Hacerle el Día a Alguien. Nos tomamos el tiempo cada semana para celebrar el uno al otro con un billete de FISH.

Nosotros, como personal quisiéramos aprovechar esta oportunidad para celebrar todas las familias en Prairieview por participar en la Filosofía de los peces (FISH), aunque usted no lo supiera. Gracias por Estar Presente en nuestra comunidad escolar, Buscar Maneras de Jugar por asistir a todos nuestros eventos adicionales, Eligiendo una Gran Actitud y trabajo en equipo con nuestro personal de la escuela. Y lo más importante es Hacernos el Día por enviar sus hijos a Prairieview y que nos permita hacer una diferencia en sus vidas. Si le gustaría participar en nuestra Filosofía de edificio y reconocer a uno de nuestros maestros o empleados de Prairieview, le invitamos a llenar un boleto de “FISH” disponible en la oficina. ¡Juntos seguiremos haciendo de Prairieview un gran lugar para nuestros niños! Sinceramente, El Equipo de Prairieview

Engaging Presentations..... -The Study of BUGS and Other Awesome Creepy Crawlies!

The science of entomology is alive (literally) and changing every day. Entomologists have the opportunity to work on solutions to protect human health whether it is fighting the battle against mosquitoes that transmit disease, protection of honey bee health or the crops that feed the billions of humans across the world. Entomology is an exciting, relevant and essential science. If you’ve never heard of it- now’s the time to learn! -Fibonacci Fun!!

Did you know that flowers, trees, hurricanes, and pine cones can do math?!?! Come learn about a simple sequence of numbers that show up all throughout nature, but more importantly, find out why!

-Water Wonders

Don't be afraid to get your feet wet, join us as we wade into the wonders of water in our world. This session includes a kid-friendly presentation and hands-on experiment. Quench your thirst for answers to questions like: What is one thing that all living things need? Or, How much water is on Earth today compared to dinosaur times? Or even, what is full of holes but can still hold water? What runs but never walks? Come find out at Water Wonders.

-Magnificent Magnets

Magnets can do much more than just hold your artwork to the refrigerator. Come test your strength against different magnets. Explore how electricity can make a magnet, and how a magnet can make electricity. See a magnet float in the air, and act like a spring. Try to guess the strange things the magnet will do next. You'll even learn how to make a working motor using a battery, a magnet, and a piece of wire -Crazy Cool Chemical Changes

Chemistry is happening all around us! Come learn the difference between physical and chemical changes in a hands-on, discovery based style where all children will be engaged in experimenting!
