KINDERGARTEN HAS CLASS!

WOW! It's already the end of October! We have had so much fun this week learning about spiders and how helpful they are to us by eating so many insects. God's world is so perfectly made!

Monday, we will be having our Fall Harvest Party. We will  go "trick or treating" around campus and then have lunch, play some games, and make a fun craft. We hope that everyone has a fun and safe holiday on Monday.

Next week we will begin our study of the Pilgrims, Indians, and Thanksgiving. This is a great time of the year and a great time to study some history of our country.

DATES TO REMEMBER:

November 7- No School/Teacher Inservice
November 16- Field Trip to the Children's Theater
November 17- Thanksgiving Feast and PowWow
November 21-25- Thanksgiving Holiday

Thanks to everyone who participated in our Eagles Nest Pumpkin Patch. Everyone was so creative and we enjoyed looking at all the different book characters.

We have begun a service project called "Be a Feather." We will be collecting items to make bags for the needy. Please bring in donated items starting Monday. Projects like this, help teach our children compassion and love for others. We thank you for your willingness to help in this way.

Blessings!

KINDERGARTEN IS A TREAT!

We had an absolutely great field trip to the Pumpkin Patch! The rain held off, it was pleasant and not hot, and we had wonderful parents that went with us to help out. We went on a "spooky" wagon ride and played "I Spy,"  learned about and got to pet some cool animals, got to play on a fun playground and go through a corn and hay maze, pick a pumpkin, and ride the big EHCS bus! What more could you want? Thank you to all the parents who were able to go!

We had a great study of owls last week. We learned about 5 different kinds of owls and concluded our study on Friday by dissecting an owl pellet and going "owling."

This week we are creating our own EHCS "Pumpkin Patch" in the Eagles Nest. Bring your pumpkin, decorated as your favorite storybook character, starting Monday. They will be judged on Friday. These are always fun to look at!

REMINDER: DUE TUESDAY
Bring your cereal box covered in black paper. DO NOT DECORATE! We will do that at school. Also, don't forget to bring in a bag of individually wrapped candy to use for trick or treating.

Our Fall Harvest Party will be on Monday, October 31st. We will be having a lunch party and going trick or treating all around campus. NO COSTUMES PLEASE!

We hope that you enjoy the pictures of our field trip and our study of Owls below.

Blessings!
Mrs. Gee and Mrs. Woody

KINDERGARTEN IS A HOOT!

Your child's report card was sent home on Friday. Please sign it and return on Monday. Thanks!

We had a very special visitor, Rescue Rex, on Friday, to conclude our study of fire safety. Below are some pictures that you will not want to miss.

 We  will be going on our third field trip to Walden Pumpkin Farm on Thursday this week. Your child will need to wear their red field trip t-shirt, jeans, and tennis shoes. We will be eating lunch when we return to school, but because we will not be eating at our regularly scheduled time, each student will need to bring their lunch, with a drink. If you as a parent, plan to go with us, you need to send in $7.00 by Wednesday, October 20th.

This week we will be studying owls. On Friday, we will be dissecting an owl pellet and going "owling." This is from the book "Owl Moon." You might want to check it out.
