Children's Book Week and Turkeys!

It's Children's Book Week and have we got some fun planned for the week! On Monday it's "Silly Sock" day and we want everyone to sport their silliest socks to school. On Tuesday it doesn't matter whether or not you match because it's "Mismatched Day" and we want you to forget about matching anything! The fun will continue into the night with Pre-K Game Night from 6-7 p.m.
Wednesday will be an even easier day on your wardrobe because we are having "Pajama Day" and everyone can wear their pajamas to school. Please remember to send extra clothes for your child if they are getting Life Touch picture retakes. On Thursday they can wear their favorite hat to school and on Friday we will finish off the week with our book character parade. We hope that all of our boys and girls will dress up as their favorite character. Please note that all children participating in the parade must have a book to accompany their costume. We can't wait to see which characters show up on Friday!
Our class has also participated in decorating a pumpkin to represent a children's book character. Our class chose to decorate our pumpkin like the weiner dog in the book Halloweiner. We would like to thank Camden's mom, Mrs. Burns for helping us decorate our pumpkin. It turned out great and the children loved working with her. We are so proud of our finished product! It is on display in the front hallway by the office for all to see. We hope you can come take a look at our hard work! We also decorated our classroom door to represent the book Pumpkin Town. The children worked hard to paint quite a few pumpkins to make it look like the cover. If you get the chance to visit to see our door, please tour the rest of the school to see all of the other doors and hallways. The creativity is flowing at the Pre-K center!
We are still collecting donations for our class WinterFest basket. The theme is "Rub-a-Dub Tub", which is a children's bath basket. We would appreciate any donations of items that would fit this theme. Some suggestions are bubble bath, bath crayons, children's washcloths or towels, children's bath robes, soaps, shampoos, bath toys or bath toy holder, faucet cover, etc. We would also like to thank those who have already donated items, your generosity is greatly appreciated! WinterFest will be held on December 3rd.
