October 20, 2023

 Hello families,

In our learning groups this week we were exploring pumpkins! The students had the opportunity to use their 5 senses and look at, feel, smell, listen to, and taste a real pumpkin.  Some vocabulary words were focused on to help students think about the pumpkins, such as seed, pulp, jack-o-lantern, nose, mouth, etc. 

Writing, math and science were included to allow the students to explore their pumpkins and engage with them in a variety of ways.  The groups also worked with their teacher to carve a pumpkin, which will be used for an exciting experiment next week!  Students also got to season, roast and taste some delicious pumpkin seeds.





The weather is expected to turn cold next week.  Please ensure that your child is properly dressed for the winter (boots, coats, gloves, hats, snow pants) as we will be going outside each day.  Please also be sure to send in extra clothes, in case your child gets wet when on the snowy playground.
