Dear Family,
This week has been so much fun as the children continue practicing oral language by sharing camping tales, singing and reciting rhymes and familiar songs and much more. The children created nighttime camp scenes with oil pastels and told a story about their picture. Just beginning to model First, Then, Next, and At the end, prompts for storytelling. We have had an amazing camp out through literature, drama, art, cooking and song. Next week, our thematic studies will bring our first science unit Bees. Your scientists will become an expert on bees, their jobs, their purpose, parts of a bee and much more. Eagle Walk is next Friday! Thank you so much to the parents who have already signed up to volunteer that day! I would love a few more volunteers to help set up and bring snacks, if possible. Please read the back of this letter for more information on Eagle Walk. Please check your child's Friday Folder for the October volunteer schedule. Have a look and let me know if changes need to be made OR if you can fill in some openings. This schedule is for our big centers from 9:45 AM – 10:40 AM. If you are available to come in at 9:00 that would be helpful! The more parents we have reading with the kids then the faster we can get the book bags done in the mornings. Thank you in advance! Eagle Walk Our annual Eagle Walk classroom fundraiser is coming up on Friday, October 10 at 9:30 AM. This is the ONLY fundraiser with earning going directly to our classroom account here in C-6. There are other PTO school wide fundraisers throughout the year, but this is the one that is for our class only. The money from Eagle Walk will be used to make centers fun and innovating. I will use the account for art supplies, cooking projects, books and a few special learning tools. Kindergarten families usually pledge a flat fee and do not count laps. At the Eagle Walk we keep the kids moving the entire time, approximately one hour. You can tell people who pledge that you will be moving for one whole hour to earn money for your class. In the past, families have reached $50+ goals! Thank you in advance for your generous contributions! I hope you will be joining us for this fun event! If you want to donate anything for “fuel” (sliced oranges, grapes, pretzels, etc.) for the kiddos then please do! Your Eagle Walker will be exhausted after the event so please pack a water bottle with your child’s name on it! Have a wonderful weekend!
