Week
of October 21st
It
was great to see so many families out at the pumpkin patch. It was
great to see so many yellow shirts! This week we will be going to
Kindred (across the street) to sing to the grandma and grandpas on
Thursday if your child would like to wear their yellow shirt that
day.
Conference
Schedule
There
will be no school on November 7th
so that we can meet with everyone and discuss how wonderful your
child is. This week we will be setting out a sign up sheet for
conferences, most conference times will be on the 7th
but we will also have a few slots before and after school that week
as well. We will also be sending home a paper for you questions and
concerns, if we could get that back at least a week before you
conference it would be extremely helpful.
Halloween
Party
We
will have a small Halloween party on Thursday Oct 31st
and Friday, Nov. 1st.
The children are welcome to wear their costumes to school that day
and we will parade to the church office and Maria's office singing
for a small treat after the playroom. Then we will head back to
class for some Halloween treats. A sign up for our snack will be out
this week. You are welcome to join us for our treats, although our
class can get rather tight. Please let us know if you want to come
in (if we have a lot of parents, we will see if we can get another
room). We are not planning games afterward but instead will be
following our normal class routine, stories...a short playtime then
sharing.
October
Family Fun Night
We
would like to invite you to our October Family Fun Night on October
29th starting at 5:30. Come in your Halloween costume and
enjoy some of the teachers favorite stores, then stay for our Costume
contest. We believe there are 5 different categories this year and
the winner from each will receive $10 off of next months tuition.
The categories are: cutest, best homemade, most creative, best
family themed, and spookiest.
Trunk
or Treat
You
are invited to join in all the fun of the 4th annual Trunk-or-Treat.
This safe, fun and free event is presented by the church on Sunday,
October 27th from 2:00 – 4:00. There will be antique fire trucks,
skeet ball, candy at every trunk and light afternoon snack. If you
would like to hand host a trunk contact the church office at
693-5881. The church is also accepting gently used or new costumes
for families around the area that may need them.
This
week in the Star Class
This
week we are going to be exploring pumpkins as we pound on them, paint
with the stems, look and feel the inside and create pumpkins of our
own. We will also be doing my a project around our favorite pumpkin
song. We will also be making some pumpkin dip to try on Thursday and
Friday.
Word
Wall
This week the
letter of the week will be Ff
for Farm and Fun. Your child can bring in an item
that starts with the letter of the week and we will write the
word out and put on our word wall. They can put their item in our
