A slightly abridged version of our newsletter this week as we head into the Thanksgiving holiday. Whether you are staying local or heading out to visit far away family, we wish you and your children a safe and spirited holiday.
Classroom Happenings
Infant I: The start of the week was a great opportunity for the younger children to spend a longer amount of time outside as the weather was pleasant and enjoyable. We realize it's now a whole different climate out there, but Monday and Tuesday were a real treat for the babies!
Infant II: It has probably caught your eye already, but there is a new climbing structure in the Infant II room. It's even equipped with a slide! This has been a fantastic addition to the classroom environment and the kids are already trying to figure out how to get to the very top.
Toddler I: Before the snow fell, the outdoor activity of choice was pinecone collection. The children would comment after picking up the pinecones that they had "sticky hands" from all the sap. The Toddler I room also had a new piece of exciting furniture, another wooden boat to rock in.
Toddler II: Two of the students in Toddler II are moving into Jen's Pre-K class on Monday. We celebrated with Autumn cupcakes, and can't wait to hear about all their exciting adventures when we see them on the playground.
Pre-K: We finally have an operational hospital in the Pre-K classroom. The kids have been playing doctor all week long as they have investigated hospital gowns, "shots and medications," tongue depressors and even a working stethoscope. It's been great fun, but it's still probably best to get your flu shot elsewhere.
AND…all classes made their own Thanksgiving placemats this week for your holiday celebrations.
Thanks for Reading
Gobble, gobble.
