November Book Orders are due by Nov. 12^th.  Remember you can place your orders on line by going to scholastic bookclubs.com.  The instructions and pass words are on our web site-www.teddybearcorner.net.  If you have any problems, please let me know.

November tuition is due now, please.

Items needed this month are wipes for hands and faces, juices, and copier paper.  Thanks in advance for all you support.

This week we are learning about Things under Our Feet.  Our circle topic is Mice.

MONDAY the children will begin by finding the differences in two pictures.  Our letter is “Y”.  Our color is WHITE and we will draw with white chalk on dark paper.  Everyone will cut blocks and glue them onto our paper.  We will make a Mayflower bag of the items that each child would take with them on the Mayflower.  Always very interesting to find out what is important for each child to have with them on a long, long trip. Everyone will make a Thankful Feather to tape to our BIG turkey.

TUESDAY the Bears will begin by finding the SAME items on the papers.  We will use chalk to make our WHITE pictures.  Everyone will make a Thankful Feather for our Turkey.  We will also decorate our chalk board for November.  We will make a door knob decoration.

WEDNESDAY the class will begin with a Topsy-Turvy table to fix.  Our letter is “Z”.  Last week each child had a small chalkboard, chalk and an eraser.  As I wrote the letters on the big board, each child wrote the same letter on their small board.  They loved it!!  We got all the way to “M” with each student making the letters very well.  We will continue with this exercise this week.  I also have stuffed, soft colorful alphabet letters that we are using to learn our letters.  Everyone will make a door knob decoration and a Turkey for our Bulleting Board.

The week of Nov. 14^th we will learn about the Pilgrims and Native Americans.  The children will also help with a Thanksgiving Feast on Tuesday and Wednesday.  I will supply a cooked turkey and the students will help make mashed potatoes, corn, buttered rolls, pickles, carrot sticks, and a special dessert.

November 21 we will learn about the Thanksgiving Turkey.  There is NO SCHOOL on Wed, the 23^rd, Thurs. there 24^th, and Fri, the 25^th due to Thanksgiving holiday.

Our annual Christmas programs will be held on Tuesday, December 13^th and Wednesday, December 14th at 10am.  The children will have a short program for their parents at 10am.  Santa should arrive about 10:15 and each child has the opportunity to sit on his lap-if they wish-and tell him what they want for Christmas.  Santa will then pass out the exchanged presents’

Thanks so much for the support.  Cindy Reardon 232-2230
