Week+09

Good Evening Parents, I hope you have all had a good week and are looking forward to a restful weekend. I just want to take a few minutes to recap our week and update you on things to come. This week's theme was Signs of Fall. We talked about Fall weather, colors, clothes and fun things that we do during the Fall. The children enjoyed making Fall clothes collages, collecting leaves for a leaf rubbing project and taking walks around campus to observe the colors of the season. The letter of the week was the letter G. Each child had an opportunity to practice writing the letter G. They also made fingerprint grapes and recited new G words each day. The children began a math project this week where they teamed up and measured each other to see how many pumpkins tall they were. The pumpkins were labeled with the numbers in English and Spanish. In keeping with our LTL objectives, this project will help the children to recognize numerals in English and Spanish. It also teaches the children how to use team work. Next week's theme will be Halloween Safety. Even though we do not teach about the ghosts and goblins of Halloween, we do realize that some families will be participating in trick or treating so we feel it is necessary to go over a few safety rules. If there are any concerns, let us know. This week will be a review of the letters of the month( E-G). We will have a Fall party on Thursday, October 29 at 9:30 am. We will just have a few small snacks to celebrate Fall. If you would like to donate anything, the sign up sheet will be outside by the sign in area. Please remember that we are a nut free school. We also would like to do a pumpkin hunt on Thursday. We are asking each parent to bring in a HAND size pumpkin. We will write the child's name on the pumpkin and they will have to find the pumpkin with their name on it! Again, if there are any questions, please let me know. Just a reminder, parent teacher conferences are Friday, October 30 beginning at 7:30 am. If you have not signed up for a conference, please stop by the sign up sheet near the front door. Don't forget our Fall Festival will also be Friday from 3-6 pm. The buses will begin leaving Lowes Food at 2:30 pm. It should be an evening of Fun! Have a wonderful weekend.
