 We also....

... learned the color white

Sang lots of songs.

Had snacks like-grapes, goldfish, honeydew, fruit snacks, graham crackers, capri suns, and pomegranate.

we gave Mr. G a cheer since his name starts with letter G.

we gave Miss Heidi a cheer since her name starts with letter H.

We had a funny discussion last week during snack time about how old the children think their parents are.  Many of them guessed that you are all 100 years old, and some of you would be very pleased to hear how young they think you are....28.  Some of you are that young...hurray! It was funny.

Next week is the letter I, the color black and Indians (Native Americans-but Indians start with I).  

Thanks for another few weeks of awesomeness, 

Miss Heidi

 Here are the two stories from this week.  Miss A's Mom came to our Halloween Party and she had a fun narration to the book "Big Pumpkin", we listened to the story and then she helped the children act out the story through movement.  It was really awesome to watch and especially for the children to be part of.

This week was so much fun.  Our Halloween Party was a little hectic, but I think the kids loved every minute of it.  Plus, they looked so dang cute in their costumes!

Next week is the Letter G, the color brown, Gingerbread Man week and sightword-for.  Yep, that's it.  See you all soon! Thanks to all the moms who came and helped at our party-I seriously could not have done it without all of you!
