*simple addition

*spatial strategies

*sound and letter recognition

*creating 3 letter words by focusing on the middle, vowel sound

TEAM BUILDING:

Today's team-building exercise involved passing a small stuffed bee around the circle without using our hands.  This task involved some definite teamwork!

Due to the Lower School Halloween Party and Parade, we were unable to have Art Class today.  Instead, we watched a Halloween video...."Spookley The Square Pumpkin".  And, we were spectators for the Lower School Halloween Parade.

THURSDAY~COOKING 

Today we cooked something that we can't eat but is definitely fun to play with...Pumpkin Playdough!  Each child brought home a small bag of pumpkin playdough to keep at home.
