WHAT’S HAPPENING THIS MONTH?

2s

Mrs. G. & Mrs. Obaker

What a difference a month makes. Your little ones are doing great! We are so proud of what they have already accomplished. This month is going to be very exciting. We are looking forward to Fall finally making an appearance! Cooler air and the leaves are changing color. We will begin October by talking about owls. Singing songs, reading owl stories, and making owl biscuits. With Halloween approaching, the children will paint bats using marbles. We will make delicious bat cookies. Then onto making ghosts. Believe it or not, the children will use their feet to paint the ghosts! And of course, they will enjoy their Trick or Treat bags and witches’ hats made from crescent rolls. More information will be provided about sending in some goodies for our Halloween bags and details about the class celebration.

3s

Mrs. Brown & Mrs. Musci

Our classroom is embracing Fall and the season’s gifts this month! We’ll be busy exploring apples, pumpkins, and will have some Halloween fun. The month will start with learning about how apples grow and apple trees. We’ll use the fruit for taste testing, stamping and making art, and learning about sinking and floating. As we move into our unit on pumpkins, students will learn about the life cycle, we’ll “dissect” one as a class, and we’ll make a “pumpkin” of our own. The end of the month finds us celebrating Halloween! Stay tuned for more specific information about our class’s Halloween party and details in ClassTag. We will wish Mrs. Musci well on her maternity leave this month and welcome Mrs. Joyce to our classroom!

3s

Mrs. Bosher & Mrs. Pawlak

We had so much fun in Mrs. Bosher and Mrs. Pawlak’s class learning about friendship & feelings during the month of September. The first week, we will start talking about Fall. We will take a walk to collect leaves which will be used to do leaf rubbings. Next second week, is all about apples! Activities include taste testing, stamping and a name recognition craft. After that we will move onto many fun activities with pumpkins and all things spooky in preparation for Halloween. If you do not see crafts coming home, it is because we are using them to decorate our classroom for the holiday. Happy Fall!

 

4s

Mrs. Howe & Mrs. Powell

Mrs. Howe and Mrs. Powell are having so much fun learning about your children. We cannot believe that it is already October!  We will begin the month talking about fall. October is Fire Safety Month so for the second week, we will be learning about basic fire safety including learning about 911. The last 2 weeks will be all about pumpkins and Halloween. It is such a fun holiday, and we cannot wait to celebrate with our class. Thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of your very special children’s lives!
