Dear Families,

We are now in our Farms and Harvest unit.  We have been learning about what a farm and garden are, what kinds of animals live on a farm, and what farms and gardens can do for us.  This week we will be learning about how to make farms and gardens grow, and what kind of work needs to be done to make plants grow.  Here is what we will be reading this week.

  

Here's what we will be doing for small groups this week

Tuesday         Making patterns with seeds
Wednesday   Using stickers and tissue paper to make an apple tree
Thursday       Planting pumpkin seeds for Halloween


During Arts&Crafts, we will be decorating our planting cups with orange and black tissue paper for our pumpkins to grow in and decorating onions with tissue paper, and carrots with pipe cleaners, to put on our cornucopia for Thanksgiving.  

Don't forget about Back to School night on 10/17!  Parents of students in the full-day program can come at 6:30, where we will discuss the morning schedule and activities, and parents of students in the afternoon program can come at 7:00, where we will discuss the afternoon schedule and curriculum.  Parents of full day students are welcome to stay for both sessions.  Hope to see you there!
