Happy Fall! One month of school is already over. As the saying goes, "Time flies when you're having fun!" I am happy to say that all of the children seem to be having fun. Although some of the children are still adjusting, there are fewer tears than a few weeks ago! The children have been busy learning our daily routine. We have been learning how to clean up and walk in a line. Yes, that is a skill! They have enjoyed listening to stories, singing, painting, and playing in our classroom and outside. Young children learn best through playing, and our children have already learned so much!
This month, we will be learning about our new season, autumn. We will be paying close attention to the changes this new season brings and focusing on how the trees around us are changing. We have begun to learn about our alphabet. Each week, we will be learning a new letter. Activities that reinforce that letter will be available to the children. This month we will be learning the letters Cc, Dd, and Ee. In math, we will continue to learn about colors and shapes, and begin to talk about the position of objects such as over and under. Please reinforce these concepts at home in any way that works for you and your child. Every child is an individual and learns in his/her own unique way!
We are practicing our Halloween songs every day for our presentation. It will be the first time on our school stage for our newest Sprouts. We are looking forward to singing for our parents. A small party will follow in the school cafeteria.
We hwill also be working on fall crafts. We will be learning about apples and pumpkins and will make applesauce!
Our author this month is Anna Dewdney. She wrote the Llama, Llama series of stories such as Llama, Llama Red Pajama. If you have any of these books, please send them to school and we will share them with the class.
Please practice the Sign of the Cross with your child. We pray before snack and lunch to thank God for the abundant gifts he has given us.
Please remember to look at the calendar I send home each month for important dates and events. As always, feel free to ask me any questions you may have.
Saints of the Month:
St. Therese of Lisieux
St. Francis of Assisi

I have also sent out an invitation to join our Class Dojo group. If you are not familiar with Class Dojo, it is a communication platform that allows parents and teachers to have quick and easy contact with each other throughout the day. I also post messages and updates about class and school activities.
