Week of Oct.26

 It's Halloween Week Already!!! 

Christmas Show: Although it's early we do need to begin practicing for our Christmas Spectacular. Please know that I have asked the children to try and keep the songs of our show a surprise. We will be practicing them in school, so no need to practice our songs at home. However each child will have a line in our show. The line will be sent home for you to practice with your child the week following Halloween.

Please continue to practice " Mittens in Hats and Hats in Sleeves and our coat down in the coat closet"

This week we will review letters Aa-Ff and Numbers 1-6 with some fun Halloween themed games.

We will also complete our Five Senses with our Pumpkin Science Day on Wed. Oct. 28.

In our God's Time SEEDS booklet we will learn about the 2 most important rules Love God and One Another.

October Show N Tell is MONDAY Oct. 26th. Please send your child in with one item that follows our October lessons.

Buddy Bingo Time is on Wed. Oct. 28th. Please send your child in with a labeled towel.
