Library

We are starting to go to the library this week. The MWF class will be going to the library on Mondays. The T/TH morning class will be going on Thursdays. The M-F afternoon class will be going on Mondays.

When we go the the library we will be sitting down to listen to a story and then we will be able to check out a book. Each child will be able to check out 1 book as long as we have the permission form back. In order for your child to check out a book the next week they will need to return their library book. If a library book is lost or damaged there will be a replacement fee.

Pumpkin Carving

Just a reminder that pumpkin carving with Dad's, Uncle's or Grandpa's is Wednesday October 21 from 6-7 pm at the school. Please remember to bring your own pumpkin. We do have carving tools here that you can use to carve your pumpkin however if there is special carving tools that you like please feel free to bring them with you. We will also have a cookie and juice snack available for families after you are done carving your pumpkin. We are looking forward to seeing you:)

Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What do You See?

Here are some pictures of all of our hard work while making our Brown Bear books. Please have your child read their Brown Bear book to you. They all worked really hard on it and were very excited to bring their books home. On each of the animals we glued on different items to give each animal their own unique texture.

Fun in the Motor Room

We do lots of fun things in the motor room. We work on our fine and gross motor skills as well as motor planning. In the motor room we may jump, hop, crawl, climb stairs, go down a slide, throw yarn balls and roll. As you can see we do lots of fun activities. Here are some pictures of the afternoon class and the MWF morning class having fun in the motor room.

Question of the Week

If your child has come home asking to wear red to school we have started doing question of the week this week. Before they wash hands for snack I will ask them "Are you wearing red today?". They have to respond by putting their name under the yes or no. When your child gets home make sure to ask them which had more the yes or the no column.

Our question next week will be "Are you wearing green today?"
