Dear Families, We had a wonderful time exploring, dissecting and tasting apples this week. The children learned the different parts of the apples. Some of the new vocabulary words we learned were: pips, flesh, skin, stem, core and leave. In our AM class, we started working with our 4th grade buddies. This week as a “getting to know you” activity, each buddy team drew a picture of each other. We will meet with our buddies every Wednesday! In our PM class, a farmer came and talked to us all about potatoes! We were lucky enough to get to taste some potato wedges and even go home with a potato of our own. Let us know if you made a tasty treat using your potato. Next week we will continue to explore apples and the changes that occur during the fall. If you find any cool fall items, bring them in to share. We are going to make our very own applesauce on Wednesday, October 25th. We are asking for parents to donate more apples. If you are able to donate please bring in the apples by Wednesday, October 25th. Thank you! School Picture day is Tuesday, October 24th. Please be sure to bring in the form and money if you would like photos. We are getting excited to go on our very first field trip on Tuesday, October 31st. Please remember we are not going to have lunch on the trip. We will have a light snack that I will provide. Each child will receive a small pumpkin to bring home. Please be sure to dress your child appropriately. The entire field trip will occur outdoors. If your child has a tendency to get car/vehicle sick please let me know so that we are prepared and can attempt to thwart off the motion sickness. REMINDERS: Tuesday, October 24th- Picture Day Tuesday, October 31st- Field Trip to Eden’s Place November 3rd- No School– Professional Development for Staff November 15th- Parent & Teacher Conferences (more details coming) Have a wonderful week, Ms. Weinberg and Ms. Moore
