We have lots of fun activities planned this week for Halloween! We will be reading the poem Five Little Pumpkins and working on our own pumpkins. On Wednesday we will be celebrating the holiday with open doors at school. Each room will have a special activity going on. There will be dry ice, spaghetti worms, and popcorn witch hands. Open doors are always a favorite day. It is a great time to explore the other rooms, and play with new friends and new toys. Since we are not dressing up in our costumes, we voted and decided we should dress up in our PJ's. So, please have the kids keep in their PJ's to come to school.
A big thank you to all the families who both attended and helped with the Fall Festival. It was great to see all the kids dressed up, the families having fun and enjoying all the chili and desserts. It is so wonderful to see all the former students reuniting and the new friends spending time. We really have a special community here. Thank you all!
Week of October 22nd
We have so much to look forward to over the next few months. It is finally feeling like the seasons are changing and we are ready for all of the excitement the holidays bring. Our Fall Festival is Saturday, October 28th from 4-6pm. We will be having a chili cook off, games, and Trunk or Treating. If you are on a committee for this event, please make sure to find out what your responsibilities are.
This week will all about spiders and bats! We will be creating glittery spider webs, marble designs, and egg carton bats. We will learn that while spiders are creepy, they are very helpful. We set up a workshop in our science center and the kids have been busy pounding away on golf tees. On Friday, Truly Nolan will be visiting our preschool and showing us some of their creepy crawlers.
Please remember that our class photos are on Tuesday. If you are not in class on Tuesday, I really hope you can make it in on that morning to get your photos done. I would love to see all of our friends in the class picture. We are set to have ours done right after 9am.
Hope you had a great fall break,
Kelly
