Week 14

This week our theme was all about turkeys! On Monday, we learned the letter Pp. I also began working with the kids to see how they have grown in their alphabet knowledge since last month. On Tuesday, we learned the letter Qq. We attended the Veteran's Day assembly. On Wednesday, we learned the letter Rr. We colored thank you cards for soldiers that will be sent to thank them for their service. I also continued to work with kids on seeing on how they have grown in their alphabet knowledge. In the afternoon, preschool teamed up with 8th grade to make a craft for world kindness day! The 8th graders helped them trace and cut out their hand prints and then preschool got to decorate them. We got a chance to hang them up in the big school for everyone to see and a reminder to spread kindness. On Thursday, we learned the letter Ss. We got a chance to color a turkey and its feathers that spelled the kids names. We also got to go get a preview of the musical that the big friends have been working so hard on! On Friday, we learned the letter Tt. We had fun Friday and for P.E. we got to play in Miss Jay's room with all our preschool friends! 

Reminders:

• Please make sure you are sending your child with a coat every day as we do go outside even if it is cold. As long as the feels like is above 25 degrees, we do go outside. 
• Please be practicing with your child how to put on their own coat, as well as zipping it and flipping the sleeves the correct ways as this saves me time in the long run from putting on everyone's coat for them and zipping them! 
• Please make sure you have changed your child's spare clothes in their cubby to Fall/Winter appropriate clothing in case of accident or spills.
