Happy Monday

Welcome back Pine friends! It is sure to be a fun week of extended summer like weather. This week we will continue to focus on the word TURN with fun ways to practice. Our centers explore movement, light and shadows, and some creepy crawlies. Thursday we plan to have some extra special fun exploring pumpkins! We have worked very hard filling our bucket and have earned a celebration!! (If you aren’t familiar with the book fill a bucket by Carol McCloud and Katherine Martin, we read it and have been working very hard together to fill our classroom bucket using kindness) To celebrate, you are invited to wear Halloween themed pjs or your favorite spooky shirt on Thursday October 31st! (Please no costumes)
