Hello PreK Families,
It was so nice to see you all at the PTC earlier this month. In November, we did a science unit on balance, building and balls and ramps. In the classroom we built structures with different types of blocks. We used ramps and built ramps. We took pictures of what we made and drew pictures of our structures in our journals. Last week, we had a lesson from Vermont Institute of Natural Science (VINS), on the topic of Building Tall Towers. We will have 2 more visits this year. This week, we have just begun doing some work around Thanksgiving.
It seems as though colder weather is here to stay. When we have snow, please send in your child with full snow gear: hat, mittens, jacket, snow pants, and boots. You may send in a pair of indoor shoes for your child to keep in their cubby in the classroom. We will also begin our day with playground time, so you may send your child dressed in full snow gear in the morning. This will probably be our routine until spring. If there is a delay of school or cancellation, you will get a phone call from the district. Or, you can check WCAX.
Next week, we will be celebrating the Thanksgiving holiday with a school wide Feast. The whole school will all eat a Thanksgiving lunch on Tuesday, November 22nd. Each child is welcome to eat the Feast lunch, but if your child would rather eat their home lunch, they can bring that with them as well. Each class is responsible for contributing to the Feast in some way. PreK brings in applesauce for the meal. Please send in a jar of applesauce with your child by Monday, November 21st.
We will have one more book order before the holiday break. Please have orders in by November 22nd. Go to Scholasitic Book Clubs.
With a $25 order, you can pick a FREE $5 Book (use code: READS).
