Community Helpers:  The focus of the unit is that children will learn about the role of the community in their lives and the importance of good citizenship!

This week we will be learning about construction workers, their tools and trucks.  We will add some Thanksgiving activities into the week as well.  The sensory table will be filled with diggers, trucks and logs.  If you walk by the room you may hear pounding hammers in the housekeeping corner.  Real wood, hammers and nails, safety googles too!  We may be building boats or bird houses along with making turkeys.  It is guaranteed to be a fun filled week!

 

Next week the is NO SCHOOL for the district students as we will be having conferences.  If you have not scheduled one, please call as soon as possible.  Our time slots are filling up!!

We wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving filled with family, friendship and food.

Community Helpers:  The focus of the unit is that children will learn about the role of the community in their lives and the importance of good citizenship!

This week for our unit on Community Helpers,we will be learning about the Fireman and how they take care of us in our neighborhood.  We will have a visit from Mr. Adam Shulte who works for the Elyria Fire Dept.  He will share with all the children what he wears, how he handles a fire and how children can protect themselves from getting hurt in fire.  It should be very fun to see a real fireman.

Thank you Sesame Street for this iconic video on Community Helpers.
