Kudos to Larenz for continuing at-home learning with practicing writing his name!
I am so proud of our students for continuing to learn at home! Pictured here are Hector, A'Zaiah, Levi, and William showcasing their creativity and practice today.
Get ready for Virtual Spirit Days, students! Next Tuesday and Thursday, all families and staff are invited to participate in spirit days. Tuesday will be Sports Day (support your favorite sport/team during their suspension; this can include students' sports as well). Thursday will be Algonquin School Spirit Day (wear an Algonquin shirt (or) anything that represent our school's colors: red/yellow). Be sure to take pictures and send them to your teachers! #ElevateExcellence #SchoolSpirit
Great job writing your name, Noah! Keep up the great work.

Message from Ms. Malinis:
Hello to all my friends! I know we are all happy to spend some extra time with our families, but I miss you all so much! I miss our daily hugs, our story times together, riding bikes in the gym, dancing and singing with Jack Hartmann, and working together to be the best class ever! I know each and every day you are continuing to make me proud and I will be so happy to hear about all the fun you had learning with your families! I would LOVE to see some pictures of you working hard at home during this time we aren’t together! Give yourself a big hug from me and remember that I love you all and I hope to see you soon!
Ms. Malinis
More at-home learning going on from brothers, William and Levi. Thank you, boys, for working together on a "Sink or Float" activity.
Aiden and Da'Mari from Ms. Davis's class are working hard at home with a "Sink or Float" and number recognition activity. Keep up the great work!
Message from Ms. Cristelli:
Good morning friends! I wanted to start today by saying how much I miss all of you. I had no idea that after saying goodbye to you last week, I wouldn't see you again for a few weeks. I miss saying Hi to each one of you, but most of all, I miss your hugs and ability to make me laugh without even trying. I love you all and I hope to see each and every one of you very soon.
While working on your at-home learning activities, have fun! Parents: please feel free to send me photos or videos of your child learning at home.
Message from Mrs. Rowland:
Good morning...
I would love to see my kiddos each and every day,
So please flood my inbox with tons of pictures...what do you say?
I miss your smiling faces and the laughter in your voice,
Not being at school, was neither of our choice.
So keep practicing your colors, numbers and ABCs,
Learning is important...wouldn't you agree?
I hope this time goes by real fast,
Until we all see each other when we meet again in class!
Be safe and miss you all,
Mrs. Rowland
Parents: Please feel free to send your child's teacher a photo of him/her learning at home! We miss our students so much and would love to "see" them. Here's Lilith working at home, happy as always!
Message from Ms. Elmore:
Good morning to all my friends, this is Ms. Elmore. I was in our class the other day and it was so empty and quiet that I missed all of your conversations with each other. I missed greeting each of you as you came to sign in for the day. I would love for you to write me a Hello Ms. Elmore note and sign it for me. If you and your family have time in your busy I would love a picture of you and your note.
Missing you guys,
Ms. E
Message from Ms. Davis:
Good morning! I wish we were together singing our morning meeting songs! I am missing your smiles, fist bumps, high fives, and hugs! I miss watching you play with your friends, learn new things , hearing you sing our learning songs, watching you dance, hearing your laugh, and covering you up at nap time. I hope you are doing your at-home learning activities with a grown up or big brother or sister. Remember it is important to keep learning while we are out of school. You need to keep getting your brain ready for kindergarten! Be a good listener and remember one of our classroom rules...”Always do your best!” Have a great day! Love-Ms.Davis
Beautiful art from preschoolers inspired by the artist, Kehinde Wiley!

Ms. Cristelli's students are utilizing centers to the fullest! Between building Mr. Potato Head and baking up a storm, the students are letting their creative juices flow.
We love learning that extends to home. Thank you, parents, for partnering with us to ensure success! And thank you, Mikey, for that awesome letter "Z" you created at home. We're so proud of you!
Good evening Algonquin families! Thank you for your flexibility today with the plumbing issue. This message is to alert you that school will resume tomorrow at the regularly scheduled time at Algonquin. We look forward to welcoming students.
Happy Valentine's Day from Algonquins's students and staff to you. If you know anything about our preschoolers, we LOVE to show kindness and love to one another. Today was a day to spread extra love and kindness around. We wish you a wonderful long weekend.
