School Health Services

~ 9Jps for (parents from tlie Scfwo Jfeaftli Office

Many parents ask When is my child sick enough to stay home from school

This is not always an easy question to answer We hope that these tips can help

A child who is sick will not be able to perform well in school and is likely to spread the illness to other children and staff We suggest making a plan for childcare ahead of time so you will not be caught without a comforting place for your child to stay if heshe is ill

Our school policy states that you should not send your child to school if heshe has a Fever in the past 24 hours bull Vomiting in the past 24 hours bull Diarrhea in the past 24 hours bull Chills bull Sore throat bull Strep Throat (must have been taking an antibiotic for at least 24 hours before returning to

school) Bad cold with a very run-1y nose or bad cough especially if it has kept the child awake at

night bull Head lice - until your child has been treated according to the nurse or doctors

instructions

If your child becomes ill at school and the teacher or school nurse feel the child is too sick to benefit from school or is contagious to other children you will be called to come and take himher home from school It is essential that your childs teacher have a phone number where you can be contacted during the day and an emergency number in the event you cannot be reached Please be sure that arrangements can be made to transport your child home from school and that childcare is available in case of illness If your daytime or emergency phone number changes during the year please notify your childs teacher immediately

Please call the schools Health Office if you have any questions or concerns

In this cold weather what could be better than curling up with a great book from the Boght Hills Library Students have

15 minutes during their library time to browse for those just right books Many new books are currently arriving at the

library

Students in kindergarten are enjoying many wonderful books by author and illustrator Mo Willems including books from the Elephant and Piggie Pigeon and Knuffle Bunny series In February students in kindergarten will listen to readalouds connected to themes connected to their work in the classroom such as bears groundhogs space Valentines Day and presidents

First grade students recently enjoyed tales about Anansi the trickster spider as we read and discussed a selection of these stories retold by Eric Kimmel and illustrated by Janet Stevens In February students will enjoy reading Epossumondas stories by Janet Stevens First graders will also use the laptops in the library to explore PebbleGo one of the library databases

In January students in second grade completed research about rivers using the PebbleGo database We enjoyed several fiction books by authorillustrator Thomas Locker and then completed some basic research so that we could have a class discussion comparing what we learned about rivers to what we read in the books Students did a wonderful job collecting facts We reached the conclusion that although the books are realistic fiction the author must have done some research to write about rivers as he did In February we will continue research Students will listen to several nonfiction books by authorillustrator Steve Jenkins and then choose a topic to research Students will work with Mrs Duffy in art to create an illustration to go with their research

Third grade students just completed research using the Power Knowledge database They shared information with each other in small groups I also asked students to take some time to reflect on their research to think about what they did well and to think about something that they might want to do differently the next time There were some great discussions among the students as well as some great thinking about the research process In February third grade students will learn how to use the library catalog to search for library books during their book exchange time

Fourth graders are at the beginning of an in-depth exploration of historical fiction In January I read and discussed examples of historical fiction Now each student will select and read a historical fiction picture book and identify the elements of the story Students will create a class map of the locations where their books took place and construct a timeline that places the time periodstopics of their books in chronological order They will also write questions about the time period of their story and use a variety of library resources to help them answer these questions Students will share their information with the class

Fifth grade students have started a study of fairy tales that take place in different countries Students are working in teams to read and analyze many versions of Cinderella In addition to the sharing of literature students will use databases and other library sources to determine how the culture traditions government etc of the country are depicted in the version of the story that they read

In sixth grade students are currently learning a way to evaluate internet websites to be certain that the website is okay to use for research They are in the process of applying the criteria to a few websites in the same way that they should with any website they may want to use Ask your 6th grader about RADCAB

We are so fortunate to have author Jarrett Krosoczka scheduled to visit us in June Watch for more details about this wonderful event
