November Newsletter

Hard Copies will come home Tuesday and Wednesday!

Dear Parents,

I want to extend a huge THANK YOU to each one of you for your help with our fall fun day. The children had a tremendous amount of fun. It would not have been possible without your help!

November is a busy month for our classroom. I will be administering the fall assessments that will be used in our March parent teacher conferences. Also coming home this month is a guide published by the Ohio Department of Education; Kindergarten Success, A Guide for Preschool Families. In addition to this we will be covering the classroom themes of the Reformation, Food Groups, and Thanksgiving.

Religion: Jacob takes care of Joesph, Baby Moses, Joshua and Jericho, and Hannah Prays
Letters: F, G, H
Numbers: 4,5
Colors: Brown

Redeemer students go out for recess if the temperature is above 40`. I will check the temperature at 10:30 am before we head out. Please put your childʼs hat and gloves inside the sleeve of their coat. This helps cut the confusion of what belongs to who, or if two children have matching accessories! The children are also learning to help each other put on their coats and hats. They are doing a great job being helpers.

Important dates to remember:
November 3,4,5: Vision screenings.
November 10-14: Scholastic Book fair
November 10-14: Grocery week in our classroom. Please send in one empty taped closed food container from each food group to school with your child for our classroom grocery store.
November 19 /20: Stone Soup day. Please send in one canned vegetable with your child. We are making Stone Soup.
November 25/26: Thanksgiving at School. Look for sign up sheet in the hall.
November 27: No School HAPPY THANKSGIVING. May God bless your family.

In Christʼs Service,
Wendy Garbrandt
