What Every Child Needs
WHAT EVERY CHILD NEEDS
- ACCEPTANCE-Every child needs to believe that she is accepted even though others may not approve of things she does.
- CONTROL-Every child needs to know that there are limits to what he is permitted to do and that he will be held to these limits.
- GUIDANCE-Every child needs to have friendly help in learning how to behave toward persons and things.
- INDEPENDENCE-Every child needs to know that she will be encouraged to try new things and to grow.
- PROTECTION-Every child needs to feel that when she must face strange, unknown and frightening situations, someone will be there to help.
- FAITH-Every child needs to have a belief in the human values---kindness, courage, honesty and justice.
- SECURITY-Every child needs to know that his home is a good safe place he can feel sure about.
- LOVE-Every child needs to feel wanted---that he matters very much to someone.

Tacos
Last week we had our last 'trip' to Mexico. At our Morning Meeting, we asked the children if they liked tacos. What did your child say?

Who Should Teach?
No one should teach who is not
in love with teaching.
Margaret Elizabeth Sangster
I love teaching. More importantly I love teaching preschool. I did not set out to be a preschool teacher. After graduating from Illinois State University with a degree in elementary education, my goal was a second grade classroom.
Life has a way of putting people and events in our path to prepare us for what is ahead. I always start with my parents as my biggest influence but many others provided experiences and knowledge that nurtured my love of teaching. Through a series of events in my life I ended up teaching preschool when my boys were little and I was hooked.
LOVE, LAUGH, LEARN. It's the MCP way. I am grateful that the MCP Board has watched our curriculum develop and grow over the years. It is our program. It allows me to really teach your child and not just implement a curriculum kit. I love to teach and am grateful that I can add programs that continually enhance and improve your child's preschool experience. Masterpiece Monday, 100 Wednesday and Fun Food Friday are activities we have added in the last two years. The Morning Meeting starts your child's day with letters, numbers, patterns or a graph.
I am also ever so grateful for the MCP staff. These three ladies are dedicated to MCP. Thank you is not enough for their commitment and hard work. They are so supportive and have taken many things 'off of my plate' and have made my job a little easier. Thank you!
Parents (and grandparents) are why we grow. We thank you for your continued support. Thank you for sharing your child with us for a few hours a week. Thank you for attending and supporting MCP programs and fund raisers. As MCP grows, we hope we can count on you for support to ensure every child in our area receives the best start.
I truly love teaching your child and have the best job in the world. Thank you.
