Fall is Here
Fall is here and there's a lot of excitement in the air! We are very excited about the progress of the new addition
and can't wait to celebrate at our Fall Fun Festival on Saturday, October 21st. Our Fall Fund raiser will start on Monday, October 9th. The proceeds will go directly to extra special educational toys selected by the teachers in each classroom. During the month of October everyone will have the opportunity to "pick a pumpkin" for the March of Dimes. We are very happy to participate in this very worthy cause. On October 25th, the older Pre-K and Kindergarten children will enjoy a trip to Battleview Orchards for apple and pumpkin picking. The end of the month will find us enjoying the annual Halloween parade on Tuesday the 31st. Details will follow.
We would like to wish a very Happy Birthday to all the October babies and to Miss Stacey Frye and Miss Robyn! Have a wonderful month and enjoy your family celebrations for Rosh Hashanah!

Darling Dolphins
September came and now is gone . We have been busy this past month with all our new friends that joined the infant room. We would like to welcome Ava R., who has recently joined our classroom. All of our babies are so beautiful and have such great smiles. We hope everyone enjoyed looking at the babies wearing some cool sunglasses. Here is some news about The Dolphins: Charlie is starting to walk. Ava M. enjoys crawling around after her friends. Ashlee enjoys sitting in the bouncy seat watching her friends. Gabriella is trying so hard to get up and crawl, soon Gabby soon. Matthew loves to hold his little white blanket when going to sleep. Rocco is having a field day crawling around and playing with his friends. Ashely enjoys playing with the water mat. Ava R. is having fun lying in the block pit on the activity mat. October will be about "Community Helpers", "Safety Rules", "Many Hats", "Building Time" , Healthy Helpers" and "Autumn Fun Week". Parents please don't forget to label all of your child's belongings with first and last names. We would also like to put up a photo of your family on our family board, so please bring one in if you have not done so. Also don't forget to dress up our beautiful babies for Halloween. Happy Birthday to Rocco!

Terrific Turtles
Wow, September was a busy month! The children enjoyed learning all about themselves for the month of September. They made new friends and got the routine down. Now with the month of October approaching it's time to put away all our summer clothes and get out the sweaters and jackets and get ready for a new season. During the month of October we will be learning about "Community Helpers", "Safety Rules", "Many Hats", "Building Time", "Healthy Helpers" and "Autumn Fun Week". We will be concentrating on the color orange and learning our shape which will be a triangle. We are also looking forward to all the fun we will have during Halloween! Also, just a reminder to please label all items with your child's first and last name.

Wonderful Whales
September was a busy month of learning names of our friends and teachers. The Toddlers also had to get used to doing different centers during center time. They learned a lot about being special, their favorite things, family fun and all about our bodies. The Toddlers had fun learning on the computer and doing the different Base fitness activities. Our themes for October are "Safety Rules!", "Many Hats", Building time", "Heathy Helpers" and "Autumn Fun Week". The Toddlers can't wait to learn about these. For the Health and Safety of our class please make sure your child's sleeping bag, blankets, bowls, plastic containers for lunch, bibs, coats and extra clothes with your child's first and last name. We hope everyone has a Happy Rosh Hashanah, Happy Columbus Day, Happy Yom Kippur and Happy Halloween. Happy Birthday to Alex!
Thank You,

We have been enjoying our time in the exploration room and using the computer and playing the all the toys. We are looking forward to the change in the season and a start to a new month of October. We will be learning about our community helpers during the month. We will also be talking about safety, different hats that people wear, building and the fun we will have in Autumn.

Parents, September is coming to an end and what a month of fun we have had. All of the children had a great first week and the transition process has been a success. We are so happy to see all the new faces in our classroom and the children have been interacting and forming new friendships daily. It was very interesting to learn about all our friends and their families. We got a chance to see what they like and what they like to do with their families. We had fun learning about each other this month! We are so excited to begin the month of October! Our unit for the month is "Community Helpers". We will also be celebrating the new season of "Fall" and watching all the changes that will happen to the environment around us. We will also be having some Halloween fun during the month of October!

Marvelous Manatee
Greetings from the Manatees! September just flew by like we knew it would and Fall is full swing ahead! The children are making a positive and smooth transition into their new class. We have jumped right into our own routine! We also got a chance to learn all about ourselves and our friends. We got to talk about all the things we like and the fun we have with our families. We were excited to start our alphabet last month. This month we will continue working on the letters D, E and F. We will also be having a lot of fun during the month of October. We will be learning about safety, different occupations, building and heathy helpers. We are looking forward to learning about these themes. We will definitely be busy learning and growing. We are very happy to have all the positive energy in our classroom to start off the new school year! Happy Birthday to Myasia, Ibrahim and Amina!

Sparkling Seahorses
Our Sparkling Seahorses are bursting with energy and striving for independence. Friendship, sharing and caring for each other have been their main goals. Their days are full of exciting activities such as "Circle Time", where they greet each other with our morning songs. Recognition of names, addresses, phone numbers, colors, shapes and numbers are developed through various games, manipulatives and the use of the flannel board. Each week they are introduced to a new letter and it's source sound. Our four-year-olds especially enjoy meeting our letter puppet that helps act out our story of the week. Our hands-on learning centers help to develop Math, Language Arts and creative abilities. We have explored many activities relating to our monthly theme "Getting To Know Me". October brings us new learning adventures and of course Halloween, our theme is "Community Helpers". We are looking forward to our new season of "Fall" and all the wonderful colors it will bring. We wish a very "Happy Birthday" to Marisa, Thomas, Jax and Christopher. Just a few reminders: please label all of your child's belongs with first and last name. Also, please make sure all required utensils, including napkins are packed for your child's lunch. Your child should have a fresh bottle of water each day. Remember to spend some time with your child each day, sharing their day makes them feel extra special and develops a positive self-esteem.

Starfish
So far the month of September has been rewarding for the students as well as myself. We've made new friends, experienced new ideas and are all starting to feel comfortable in our daily routine. During the month of September we've practiced our handwriting, focused on the letter A and reviewed our sounds of the letters in the alphabet. We also have maintained our normal daily activities including the month of September, the days of the week and we are getting ready for our new season, Fall. We have created fun-filled projects such as friendship bracelets, a friendship quilt and most creatively our own "starfish" class book. The Starfish are looking forward to the month of October. We will be focusing in on the letter B as well as reviewing the sounds of the alphabet. We also are looking forward to our monthly themes including "Safety Rules", "Many Hats", "Building Time", "Healthy Helpers", and "Autumn Fun Week". We are all looking forward to the month of October. I would just like to also wish Emily a very Happy Birthday!
