News letter A note from Mrs. Mudd November 7, 2008 At this time of year we often reflect on all that we are thankful for. First and foremost we are so thankful to have such a wonderful group of children to work with. They bring a smile to our faces every day!! Second, thanks to each one of you for your support!! You have gotten involved in your child’s early years of education and that is what matters most. Lastly, I would personally like to thank Mrs. Jones for her continued support as well as to Mrs. Carter for all she does to make each day special. What exciting times we had in October! Thanks to all parents who supported our class basket that was auctioned off at the Fall Festival! It was a huge success. Also this month, the children have discovered the changes in the seasons and explored with pumpkins through math, language, science and even cooking activities. See below for themes for the month. The children enjoyed the visit from the fire fighters on Wednesday. We will be learning more about fire safety each day. Don’t forget to change the batteries in your smoke detector since you turned back your clocks! See below for themes for the month. After reading thru the attached papers, if you have any questions please ask!
