Happy Wednesday!

Hi Parents

Wow! Today was a busy day, filled with making clay pots, Indian necklaces, and Pilgrim hats. We have enjoyed talking about Thanksgiving and its history.

Sorry about this late post but this week along with talking about Thanksgiving, we are working on the letter Ii and the sight word to. In Math we are working on the number 10 and number order.

A few reminders:

I try and send a book order every month. I didn't want to interfere with the Book Fair last month so we are starting this month. Tomorrow is the last day to turn in book orders or order online.

Afternoon will have library tomorrow (Thurs) because Friday is our Early Early Out Friday. Morning 9:00-10:45 Afternoon 11:30-1:15. The morning class will still have library on Friday.

If you haven't sent back your Grandparent/Special friend slip, please send it by Friday so I know how many to plan for. The children are excited and have practicing a lot.

Finally on Monday we are having a "Kindergarten Feast." We will dress up as pilgrims or Indian (their choice) and have a feast. Thanksgiving is a sharing time and so if your child would like to bring 23 pieces of something for our Thanksgiving feast they can. For example; goldfish, raisins, olives, cheese slice, crackers, apples slices, etc. This is entirely up to you and is optional It should be a fun day though.

Phew! I think that about does it for this week. I just want to thank you for your patience with me and your support. I hope you know how much I enjoy having your child in my class. If you have questions or concerns please let me know. Thank you for sharing your precious jewels with me!

November 7-11

This week is uneventful, which is nice. We will be wrapping up our fall unit and we will move on to talking about Thanksgiving next week. Just a few reminders to make sure your child dresses appropriately and has a coat. We try and go outside often and it doesn't take much to get sick.

Also I am sending home a note today, but I am looking for medium sized pine cones for a project we are going to do. I am looking for the hard kind that are open. If you have any or know where I can find some please let me know. Thanks again for the paper towel and toilet paper rolls.

This week:

Letter: Mm
Math: #9
Theme: Fall-senses

Have a great week!
