October is here and we are very excited to celebrate the season of fall together in class. This upcoming week, we will be exploring farms and farm animals in preparation for our field trip to the pumpkin farm on Friday. We have farm themed learning centers, fingerplays, stories and a number of fun activities to enjoy. On Wednesday, we will be reading the story, “The Little Red Hen,” where the little red hen bakes bread from scratch. We are looking for one parent volunteer to help bake pumpkin bread with the class.
In conjunction with farm animals, we will also be covering the core concepts of the letter Bb, the color pink, the number 4, the shape of a triangle and the math concept – more or less. Our Voyages religion lesson this week is “God Calls Abraham.” We will be singing, “My God Is So Great” and praying the grace, “God Is Great.”
