October 2009

This months letters are "C,D,L,A"

It is Safety Month.

Which means we will be learning about stranger safety, traffic safety, bike/scooter safety and last but not least fire safety. We will be visiting the new Springville Fire Station for our field trip, date and time TBA!

It is also officially AUTUMN! We love learning about the seasons and what changes occur during each season. Watch for leaf rubs, tree paintings, and wax leaf books.

Our class is currently learning how to "fill the bucket." We "fill the bucket" when we say or do something nice for someone else. When the bucket is full of "warm fuzzies" we will have a special class party! We are learning two songs to help us remember how to treat others, "The Golden Rule," and "Building Others Up."

October is also a fun month because we learn many new fun Halloween songs and silly activities to celebrate Halloween.

Spotlight: JACOB His new favorite color is blue. He is our star performer! He sang a solo for our class of "I've Been Working on the Railroad." He sange every word on tune! (I still can't do that :).)

We are still working on patterns and trying to learn more difficult patterns and understand why and what a pattern is. Legos and blocks are great pattern building tools.
