Ms. Gibbs and the students decorated the door to look like a Gingerbread house and then we made and tasted ginger bread cookies. All the students are so excited about Winter Fest tomorrow from 12-3 on the Pre-K. We hope to see you all there!

Go Away Big Green Monster

This has been a busy week. Ms. Gibbs and the students have been working very hard to get our pumpkin and door ready for Book Week, November 14-18. Our door is Go Away Big Green Monster. Please check out the pictures below to see how it turned out. The students have really enjoyed the process.

Pumpkin Time!

This week our class learned all about pumpkins. We discussed the parts of a pumpkin, how they grow, and the different types of pumpkins. The students measured their height in pumpkins and made tear art pumpkins. The favorite activity with the pumpkins was the Pumpkin Carving. The class voted on the faces for the pumpkins and then the helped to clean out the pumpkins. They all really had a lot of fun with every part of the the whole process. Please remember that we are collecting donations for our Toy Basket, any and all donations will be greatly appreciated. Check out our class newsletter that is coming home today for important upcoming events. Below are some pictures of our pumpkin activities. Thank you to everyone who returned the Community Helpers take home project, the students really loved shareing them. Thanks for all your support!
