Happy Monday!

**Now until Christmas break goes fairly quickly so just a reminder that we need to have updated shot records for your child by January 7th, 2019.

We hope everyone had a terrific Thanksgiving weekend!

K/PREK1: This week, we’re discussing ways that we can be a responsible member of our family as well as a responsible member of a group. Today, we read ‘Clifford’s Good Deeds’ and before we started, we talked about what a ‘deed’ is. Lucy shared, “It’s when you help someone!”. Throughout the story, we noted the ways that Clifford was choosing to make a responsible, helpful choice.

After the story was done, we talked about ways that we’re a helpful, responsible member of our family. Each friend shared one way that they help and I dictated their response on the chalkboard. I asked, “Why is it important that you help your mom and dad around the house?”. Lucy thought about it and raised her hand: “So that our parents know that we appreciate them.”

Social Studies: K.2.4: Give examples of how to be a responsible family member and member of a group.

PREK2: After reading Ribbon Rescue, children discussed Jillian and how she became a great helper to the people she knew. As different acquaintances were on their way to a wedding, Jillian helped them with different tasks. All of these tasks required ribbons that she was wearing in her hair so at the end of the story, she had no ribbons left but had helped the people around her. All members of the group wrote their name under ‘sharing her ribbons’ after they discussed the question!

Yesterday, Franklin turned 4 years old! We celebrated with Franklin today and he wasted no time exploring the wood working bench which is a four year old staple here at Wee Friends. We hope year 4 is the best yet!
