November Studies/Vision and Hearing Screenings

November will be a busy month with our studies as we have a lot going on!  We're continuing our study of seeds with our plants in the classroom.  We planted corn, sunflower, apple and pumpkin seeds and we're charting their growth. We'll make bird feeders this week from our sunflower seeds and hang them outside our window along with a bird bath and hopefully we'll attracted some feathered friends that we can observe and learn about this winter. We'll take what we've learned about seeds and start learning about nutrition and the food pyramid.  With Thanksgiving right around the corner we'll learn about food the Indians and the Pilgrims ate and how that ties into our Thanksgiving feast of today.  We're already read about Indian Two Shoes as we're starting to learn about how the Indians lived and what they ate.  We'll continue that as we learn about the Pilgrims and how they lived and what they ate.

Our Nurse Karla began our Hearing and Vision Screenings last week and she'll finish up this week. She'll write a report and let you know about her findings with your child and please contact us if you have any questions.
