It's November!

We hope that everyone had a Happy Halloween.  It sounds like the weather will continue to be nice for a little while yet.

Outdoor Classroom:  We were able to get outside today.  We played with the balls and hoops and ran around.  Thank you for dressing the children in warm coats.  On Tuesday it was raining so we stayed inside.  Our choices inside were table top easels, Play Doh and tumbling. 

Circle Time:  We read the story "How Do Dinosaurs Eat Their Food?".  The children seemed to enjoy it.  Some grasped the concept that bad manners make people angry and good manners make people happy.  We learned one new song called "I Had a Little Turtle, His Name Was Tiny Tim".  We learned the song "Mr. Turkey" also (in honor of the upcoming holiday).

Snack Time:  We had bananas and milk.  Thank you, Noelle.  We had veggie straws and juice.  Thank you, Abbey.

Free Play:  The children were offered the opportunity to make a 3D mural using fall leaves and fall themed manipulatives. 

Green Group conferences are today from 3 - 7 p.m. and the Yellow Group conferences are on Tuesday.  We placed a schedule in each child's backpack today and will do the same tomorrow.  If you did not sign up to come speak with the teachers, please feel free to contact the school and schedule an appointment. 

We are missing just a couple of permission slips for our field trip, so if you haven't turned yours in, please do so.
