At Mrs. Hennessy's center we made our October calendars. Please note that there is no school for children on Monday, October 8th. Look for an email later today with information on signing up for a parent conference. Also, on Wednesday 10/24 we have our field trip to the Island's Y Pumpkin Patch.
Our class does not come to school on that day. Instead we meet at the Y at about 10:00
wearing our pumpkin patch t-shirts. (If you haven't yet sent in a plain white child's t-shirt, please do that ASAP! We’ll
be sending these home by Friday 10/19.) Each child needs to be accompanied by
an adult in order to participate. Cost
per child is $8.00. We watch a skit, ride
a hayride, make a craft, eat lunch (hot dogs), and pick a pumpkin from the
pumpkin patch. We finish at about 12:10
and leave from the Y to go home. (Cost for a parent is $4.75 if you choose to eat lunch with
your child. If you also want to pick a
pumpkin, your cost is the same as your child's, $8.00.)
At Miss Kathleen's center we explored the light table and the light box. We had caterpillars, butterflies, and all kinds of jewels and shapes that we sorted, compared, and combined on the lighted surfaces.
