This week we will be focusing on the question: What are the characteristics of the trees in our community? We will be using our senses to discover this answer.  We will be tasting different apples and comparing tastes and preferences. One of our books this week is “The Grouchy Ladybug”.  For math we will be working on solidifying our counting to 5 skills.  Our letters of the week are K and L.  We will be painting our K with keys and decorating our L with leaves.  The kids always seem to love this unit and their attention to details and conversations about the trees is always fun to hear. They get very excited!

REMINDERS: Picture day for DAP is October 19th!

PM CLASS ONLY: Our first filed trip is this Thursday October 5th.  We will start out our week with a visit from Mrs. Debi Abela from the ELI program.  She will be coming every Monday of our field trip week to go over what we will see when we get there.  She also sends/brings in some great hands on items that we use in our centers. (we use the centers in both AM and PM classes just because she brings really cool stuff!!)
