Week 15

This week we talked all about Thanksgiving! On Monday, we learned the letter Uu. We finished making our name turkeys! Check them out as they are hanging on our windows! On Tuesday, we learned the letter Vv. During play time, I asked each kid how to cook a turkey and made it into a cook book! This is always one of my favorite activities because of what the kiddos come up with! On Wednesday, we went to church with our 8th grade buddies! We also learned the letter Ww. On Thursday, we learned the letter Xx. I painted all of their hands to make Thanksgiving placemats! I hope you enjoy this little keepsake to have throughout the years to remember how little their hands once were! I know that time goes fast and they grow in the blink of an eye! On Friday, we had fun Friday! In P.E. we had a new obstacle course challenges, played follow the leader to keep working on following directions and free time! I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving! I will see you all in December! 

 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. 
• In case you missed Miss Jay's email about the door bells, reminder that the doors lock at 8:00 am everyday. If you are here after that time, remember to push to door bell hard as it is not always heard if it is pressed lightly. If someone doesn't come answer the door, you can always try using the doorbell at Miss Jay's back door at the end of the ramp.
