We will be having our Halloween Party on Thursday, September 27^th, your child may bring a costume, and Room Mothers if you need help with anything please let me know. Your child is also invited to come for the Halloween walk on Monday, but needs to be with a parent. Thanks!

Last week our Theme was “F is for Fall”. The children made: Fall Friend Scarecrows, Acorn Men, Fall Sticker Scene, Fall Trees, “Fall Brings....” Books, “Falling For Jesus..”picture, and Fruit Loop “F is for Fall” Picture. Last week we also enjoyed a visit with our Prayer Pals who helped the children make their own Rosaries, colored a Picture of Mary(showing the children how to color in the lines), and shared a snack with them. We also made fingerprint Rosaries, practiced the “Hail Mary”, and prayed along with The Children Joyful Mysteries on Youtube. In class we learned about Squares, Fall changes, tried different kinds of Fruit, sang and danced to many Fall Songs, and enjoyed many Fall Books(Their favorites were “When the Leaf Blew In”and “There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed Some Leaves”).

This week we have been learning all about Letter G. We made Gak for the Activity Table( a little messy) but they loved it. They made “G” on green paper with glue and gold glitter and wrote the word Ghost and added Ghost stickers; Ghost Lace Cards; Foot Print Ghost; and Edible Ghost. They have been working on The Months of the year, made Calendar Pages, sang along with many counting Ghost and Halloween Songs, worked on our assessments for Parent Teacher Conferences, sorted Halloween Counters, talked about how God made all living things to grow, learned some of the Loving Words God wants us to use, and we work on our Prayers every day.

REMEMBER AT THIS TIME WE ARE COLLECTING ITEMS TO SEND TO OUR TROOPS!

God Bless!!
