Newsletter October 1-5


Apples Apples!

October is here and we are ready for fall, more pumpkins and apples!  This week we will be studying apples to prepare for our field trip to Center Grove Orchard on October 8th.  Remember, we will be leaving preschool at 9:00 and returning at 11:30, or shortly after.  If you have not turned in your permission slip or your $4.00, please do this as soon as you can.  If you misplaced your permission slip, just let me know. 

We had a great week last week and the students are pumpkin experts!  I hope that they all went home and retold the story of how a pumpkin grows, if not, ask them!

I am beyond amazed at how well the students are doing with the classroom routine and learning the importance of working together and being kind.  Simply amazed!

This week we will begin our Handwriting Without Tears curriculum.  You will see some worksheets coming home that might seem a little silly, but I promise, they are learning how to hold a pencil correctly and developing fine motor skills through these lessons, which will give them the confidence for writing letters, which will begin next week!    

Important Notes!

Field Trip October 8th-Bring $4 for admission and permission slip.

No school October 9th and 12th due to professional development. :(

If you have any questions or concerns, please email or call.  Thanks!
