October

October is here already and frankly the students and I say it still feels like summer with all the wonderful sunshine we have been having lately. 

We have started Adventure Snack on Wednesdays. This is when we offer the students a small piece of fresh fruit or vegetable. Students are asked to touch, smell, kiss and nibble at the very minimum. Not all students are quite to the nibble phase but I think they might get there soon. If the student has had the snack before and likes it, they can certainly have more than just a small piece. So far we have tried fresh baby carrots and organic fruit leather. Both were a hit.

The Fun Run is this Friday. Our class will participate between 10:45 and 11:25. You are welcome to come and run with your child, cheer, or watch. 

Information on the pumpkin patch field trip and Fall Celebration will come home Monday. Conferences are next week and I hope to see you all there. If you can't make any of the times for conferences, please send me an email and we can set a different time.

Below are some pictures of the kids day. They are very much enjoying their special classes!

 Yes - I have had to use that several times. Sometimes the snack crumbs are just too good to leave.
