🍜🥢 P.L.A.Y.S. Time in Kindergarten at Hobe Sound Elementary! 🥢🍜

Through imaginative play, our young learners are building communication skills, teamwork, and confidence while having so much fun learning together!

☕🍽️ Learning Through Play at Hobe Sound Elementary! 🍽️☕
Our Kindergarten students in Ms. Dolan's class were actively engaged in meaningful dialogue as they worked together to set up a café, prepare meals, and serve their customers during daily P.L.A.Y.S. time at Hobe Sound Elementary! 👩🍳
Students practiced communication, teamwork, and problem-solving while taking orders, preparing pretend food, and making sure their café ran smoothly.
P.L.A.Y.S. time helps our students build important social and language skills while having fun and learning together! 💛

Elevate Eagles with Evening Reading:
📚💙 Parents, great news!
We’ve figured out how students can enjoy the wonderful Learning Ally audiobooks even when they’re away from school!
If your child is eligible, they already have access — and they may even have books waiting on their bookshelf. 🎧📖
To get Learning Ally working at home:
1️⃣ Delete the Learning Ally app from your phone or iPad if it’s already installed.
2️⃣ Have your student log into ClassLink.
3️⃣ Open Learning Ally from there… and they’re in! 🎉
Now your child can dive into tons of amazing audiobooks all weekend long. Encourage them to read or listen to something great over the three‑day weekend! 🌟
If you have any questions, reach out to Mrs. Parrilli.
More Learning Ally tips coming next week! 😊

💗💕 Thank you to our amazing PTA and all of the families who donated sweet treats for our wonderful Valentine Treat Buffet! 🍪🥤
The festive decorations transformed our lunchroom into a special snack café for our teachers and team members. We are so grateful for the love and support that made this week feel extra special! 💕💗
💙Building Bridges Enrichment Club recently focused on the powerful words of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
As students learned about his lasting impact on our world and reflected on his iconic “I Have a Dream” speech, they took time to share some of their own BIG dreams.
From future leaders and innovators to helpers and creators, our students reminded us that the makers of tomorrow are sitting in our classrooms today. We are so proud of each one of them and the bright futures they are already imagining. ✨

Elevate Eagles with Evening Reading!
📚✨ Elevating Eagles with Evening Reading! ✨📚
It’s been a little while since my last post, but I’m excited to be back! 💙 Today I’m sharing a link to the PowerPoint I created for our Literacy Night held last week. We missed you! 🦅💛
There was so much valuable information shared, and I completely understand how busy a parent’s schedule can be — it’s not easy to make every event. ⏰
Because I’m so passionate about reading, I wanted to make sure you didn’t miss out on this particular presentation. It includes simple, effective strategies for reading with your child — whether they’re young or older. 👶📖
I hope you’ll take a few minutes to look through it. Reading with your child is truly the key to helping them grow into confident, successful readers. 🌟📘
👉 Here’s the link to the presentation: https://www.canva.com/design/DAG_ufS3laA/_gMJTOUxEpiErNpx1NlLig/view?utm_content=DAG_ufS3laA&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link2&utm_source=uniquelinks&utlId=h05f01e3cbb
Let’s keep lifting our Eagles higher, one book at a time! 🦅💙✨
