Just a few quick updates for this week's blog!
Monthly Theme:
We are finishing up our nature and fall theme for October! We read about an Apple Tree and the life cycle of an apple seed. Your child created a flow map of the sequence of apple seeds. To have some fun with sequencing, we put pictures in order of making a peanut butter and kelly sandwich!
We also read a story about two monsters who have a pumpkin growing contest. We were able to relate this story to our work with the apple seed. In the story, the two monsters have a contest to see who can grow the largest pumpkin. We looked at a pumpkin and students had to make guesses on the width and height of the pumpkin. The winner received a prize!
Halloween Note
Please be sure to read the Principal's Message for school guidelines around appropriate costume attire for our Halloween festivities. If you are unsure about whether or not something in your child's costume is appropriate, please contact me. Also included in Mrs. Gluck's blog are the guidelines around students going home for lunch on Halloween. If you plan on bringing your child home for a costume change, please be sure to review the procedures. ~Thank you
Dog Therapy
We had our first session of dog therapy this week! The students loved petting Riley! He was such a joy to have! We had Mrs. Friziellie as a guest visitor who read a story to the students and Riley. It was a great morning!
Library Book Reminder:
Reminder to please return library books to school on Friday so your student may look for new books. Thank you!
If you have any questions, please e-mail me! Also, let me know if you have any questions for Halloween! Happy Halloween! And GO CUBS!!
