Announcements: Our first field trip is next week on Thursday 25th. We will be walking around the corner to our church and playing active games. This will just be for the four year olds. We are learning about how important each of us are and also how to take care of our bodies and stay healthy. You may want to check some books out at the library to read with your child about staying healthy. This is the time of year that we start staying indoors and sickness can spread. Ways to prevent this is washing hands, eating healthy, and exercise. It’s important that children still get time to play outside everyday so bring out the jackets and stay active this Fall and Winter!
Home Challenge: At least once a week take time to sit with your child and look at their worksheet that they did. I have a double sided sheet that the 3 year olds might not get to both sides so your challenge is so help them finish it at home. The 4 year olds will bring their sheet home on Thursday and have had two days to work on it. Have them tell you what they letter and number they learned and have them name common words or words in the house with that letter.
