Thank you RCB for all of the support you continually show us at Claremont!

On this #wellnesswednesday, we want to encourage you to encourage imaginative play! Playing pretend has SO MANY benefits:
- it encourages language development and helps children to express themselves better.
- it increases social skills
- it helps develop critical thinking, problem solving, and thinking outside of the box
- it encourages creativitiy - helping children to learn to use their imagination and think abstractly
Encourage your child to stay little a little longer - and help them to rekindle the fun of imaginative play!
Tell us, what do your children like to pretend to be or do?

PJ day is our FAVORITE!!
Read Across America Week is a lot of fun, but what we really want to do is bring awareness to how important reading is to the success of our students!
Did you know, "Books contain many words that children are unlikely to encounter frequently in spoken language. Children’s books actually contain 50% more rare words than primetime television or even college students’ conversations." - The Read-Aloud Handbook, by Jim Trelease.

Pre-Kindergarten students learn a lot about school expectations during their year. One of the big things they work on all year is how to cooperate with each other to complete a task. These girls are working together to complete a puzzle!
