We are going to work with these words: city, country, farm, neighbor, people, town, giving, thankful, and Thanksgiving,
We are looking and listening for the words and concepts throughout the day.
We will be reading books about cities, homes, and Thanksgiving .
We will learn about number 7 - what it looks like, writing number 7, and counting 7 objects using one-to-one correspondence.
Thanksgiving Break
DUE TO THE LONG BREAK, ALL LIBRARY BOOKS WILL BE RETURNED ON YOUR SCHEDULED LIBRARY DAY. WE WILL NOT CHECK OUT BOOKS UNTIL WE RETURN TO SCHOOL. THIS WILL HELP PREVENT LOSING BOOKS OVER THE BREAK.

Cold and Flu season is HERE!
Your child’s health is of great importance. It is that time of year when colds, flu and viruses run wild in schools, churches, and other public places. We will take every precaution to have a healthy and safe environment. Please consider getting a flu shot for yourself and your child. Having the flu is not any fun and can be life threatening for young children.
We would like you to consider keeping your child home if they have fever, diarrhea and vomiting. It is requested that students be symptom free for 24 hours before returning to school. Please don't give your child a fever reducer and send them to school. Our bodies create a fever to fight viruses and to give us a warning that we are sick. When you send a child to school sick you will be impacting 20 plus families in addition to the teachers and their families. Teachers don't like missing days of school due to illness.
If your child becomes ill while at school, we will take them to the school nurse. The nurse will evaluate your child and contact you to let you know if you need to pick your child up. Please keep in mind the only person on campus that can give any medication is our school nurse.
Weather and Clothing
Please make sure your child is dressed appropriately. If you send sweaters or jackets, please make sure you have written your child’s name on the tag or in the article of clothing. We are still planning on going outside unless it is raining or snowing.
We are noticing students do not have emergency clothes in their backpacks. Please check your child's emergency clothing to make sure it is not summer type clothing. Consider placing warmer clothing for emergency clothes-long pants-sweat pants, leggings, long sleeve t-shirts and underwear in a gallon size bag.
