Scarecrows

This week we talked about scarecrows. We learned what their job is, who usually has them around, what they are made of, and the seasons we see them. We also focused on the letter Hh and the number 3. Report cards also went home this week, if you have any questions about them please contact me. 

I have had a few families ask about the giving tree and what might still be needed in our classrooms. The Pre-K staff use the giving tree as an alternative for obtaining supplies for projects and other helpful classroom items rather than asking for school supplies from each student at the start of the year. Things that we could still use are: non-coated 9 inch white paper plates, cotton balls, coarse sand paper, assorted stickers either theme related or just fun ones for the writing center, play dough, sidewalk chalk, bubbles (and bubble wands), Pre-k age board games, zip lock bags (gallon and sandwich), plain white cupcake liners, Clorox Anywhere spray. If any of these items seem like something you would like to donate, please send them with your student to school. Thank you!!!

Our theme for the next two weeks will be Thanksgiving. We will also focus on the letter Tt and number 4.
