YoYoGuy

YoYoGuy came to visit Ludlow Elementary School today.  Mount Holly came down the mountain to see him too.  He dazzled us with all sorts of tricks and different yo-yo's.

"Mickey's in trouble!"

Happy Thursday Families!

Welcome Winter!

I just had to share one of the best smiles of the week...watching some of the preschoolers work vigorously to help Mickey..."Mickey's in trouble, Mickey's in trouble...oh there must be a better way"...to help Mickey not be covered by the snow!

One of those priceless moments...they were so sincere in their efforts!

Enjoy your day...we have certainly enjoyed ours!

Teeth, teeth, teeth

The Winter Break that is fast approaching is such a fun time with sliding, skiing, skating, and staying up late with friends and family.  Remember, just because students are on vacation, the germs in their mouths are not!!  They never take a break.  The germs are always wanting to cause gum disease and cavities!

 

Please help your child when it comes to taking care of his/her teeth over vacation.  Remind them that brushing two times a day for two minutes and flossing at least once a day is still important! Even more so, with all the treats this season brings to us.

 

This all being said, The Children's Dental Health Project is still going strong here at school. Many families have wondered if it is too late to sign up.....the answer is No!  It's not too late.  Please contact Kristin Veysey, School Nurse here at school if you need the forms to do so.

We read the book Turkey Trouble where the turkey tries to disguise himself so that he won't get eaten.  Here are a few of our turkeys that were created at home with our families.

Weekly Wednesday Tip

Handwashing!

HANDWASHING

“A Do-It-Yourself Vaccine”

Handwashing is one of the easiest, cheapest, most efficient ways of keeping ourselves healthy!  It can keep us safe from a multitude of different germs that can cause colds, flu, diarrhea, and other more serious infections.  It can also keep others from becoming sick, too, but decreasing the spread of germs.  Please wash your hands several times throughout the day to maintain a healthy lifestyle and decrease sickness.  Here are the recommended times to wash your hands:

• Before, during, and after preparing food
• Before eating food
• Before and after caring for someone who is sick
• Before and after treating a cut or wound
• After using the toilet
• After cleaning a diaper or helping someone else use the toilet
• After blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing
• After touching an animal, animal feed, or animal waste
• After handling pet food or pet treats
• After touching or handling garbage

Wash your hands with warm water and soap for at least 20 seconds (Sing “Happy Birthday” to yourself TWICE.  Rinse well and dry well!

See the video below which was in celebration of Global Handwashing Day, which was on October 15 and we JUST MISSED IT!
