Good Afternoon!

**We are going to be doing our yearly Halloween parade! It will start at 4:00 on Wednesday, October 31st. Depending on the weather, we will either take a walk around the block or a short walk around Wee Friends/out in the back yard. If you have any questions, please ask!

K-PREK1 read a story that we had never read before which opened the door for a good ol’ prediction session! Throughout the story, we stopped at four different places to talk about what might happen next. We used the text that we had read so far to help give us clues! Children shared their predictions aloud and stated why they felt that way. We really enjoyed the humorous nature of the story!

K.RL.2.4: Make predictions about what will happen in a story.

PREK2 read ‘Bear Feels Scared’ which lead into their message board. We discussed the things that made the bear feel scared and then towards the end, what made the bear feel safe. Children took turns coming to the board to write their name by their answer.

An art activity was made available at the table. Each child who chose to do the activity picked one piece of paper that had a surprise drawing on it. After painting the paper with water colors, the picture was revealed!

A group of our older peers used this morning to travel! Since it wasn’t a good farm morning, they decided to build a vehicle that took them all the way to Canada. They used different maps to help them navigate their way. Once they were there, they decided to come back home–Only to make a pitstop in Florida first.

Rainy mornings are the perfect building mornings! Friends teamed up to build together using trio blocks and magnatiles which are far and away our favorites. Our cooperation skills are always on display as we work through problems that may arise .

Breakfast– Whole wheat toast/cinnamon raisin bagel with butter and PPC pears.

Lunch– Whole wheat pasta with butter and shredded chicken, PPC banana, and PPC cherry tomatoes.

PM snack– Whole milk yogurt with fresh pears.

Wee Sprout– PPC cherry tomatoes.

Have a great night!
