IPS/Butler University Laboratory School

Over the past few weeks I have had a few questions about sharing.  Many parents are curious if they can send their child’s favorite toys to school.  The answer is YES!  Each morning, during morning meeting, 4 or 5 friends get the opportunity to share something from home, a piece of work, or an event that happened in their life.  We use this as a part of our community building in our classroom.  In addition, I think it is important to honor all parts of a child’s life.  Toys and items from home are a big part of that!  Please do not be worried that it will become a distraction.  The kids now know that it goes back in their book bags after our morning meeting.  It is now just part of our routine. 🙂  SO….if they have something they want to bring in and as a parent, you are ok with it, send it in!
