Monday

          We started this morning outside, playing with all of their friends. The children seemed to like going out. We're going to try it for a while and see how it goes. Please remember on chilly mornings to send your child with a hat and gloves. If you need help getting these items for your child, please let me know. In addition to their hat and gloves, be sure to also send them with a heavy coat or layers. Layers work well for this time of year - as the day warms up they can get rid of a layer.
          We had music this morning, followed by some spooky, silly rhyming poems. A couple of the children started talking about rhyming words, so I thought it was a great opportunity to read poems from our Halloween book, A Little Bit Scary, by Gill Davies and Gill Guile. We talked about real things vs. make-believe. We determined that monsters, vampires and werewolves are make-believe. However, the children decided that bats, bones, and candy are real. 

Pictures have been posted of our Fall Festival On-Campus activities. 

Reminder: Our trip to Jeter Farm has been postponed to next Monday, October 26th.
