Friday PJ Day!

Image
Good afternoon, Oak Room Family!  It was a cozy and fun day today in pajamas.  The children continued to develop their restaurant play, began maker space work at the light table, had library reading groups, played outside and did a lot of Halloween themed dancing.  It has been a fun end to the week.  Hope everyone has a fun and safe night today and weekend this weekend! Have a safe and wonderful weekened!

Another Little Library

 Good afternoon, Oak room families! Today we were able to get outside and go for a short walk. We spotted another Little Free Library while we were out, and the children were very excited to talk more about it. Have a fantastic evening!

Capers

Good afternoon, Oak Room Family!  We had a busy morning inside today!  We spent time in the gym and had Small Capers.  We also want to make you aware that the heater that heats the Oak Room is broken and needs to be replaced.  The repair work is being planned and scheduled but in the mean time we are using a space heater in the room to keep the temperature comfortable.  As we continue to move towards cooler temperatures and heater repair, please try to keep a sweatshirt or jacket at school for your child to use if they feel chilly and please dress them in pants to stay warm.  You may also want to send a heavier blanket for rest time if your child wants.  Again, we are using a space heater for supplemental heat in the room which should keep the room at a comfortable temperature, we just know that some children are more comfortable when dressed warmer so it is helpful to have warm clothes at school.   Have a wonderful evening!

A Walking Field Trip...?

 Good afternoon, Oak room families! We spent our morning in our classroom due to the rainy weather and children explored a variety of invitations. At our class meeting, we discussed whether or not children had been to the library before: Many of our friends had visited a library before, which prompted our next question:  "what can you find at the library?" N.S. "books!" A.M. "newspapers" P.L. "sometimes I find toys." L.S. "I have a toy sink at my library." W.C. "dino books!" We decided that there was much more to discover at a library besides books. Some friends said they drive to their library, while others said that it is so close that they can walk! This made us think... is there a library close to our school that we could walk to? Hmmm.. I wonder! A few pictures from our discoveries this morning: Have a great night!

A Rainy Monday

 Good afternoon and happy Monday, Oak room families! We stayed at school in lieu of going to the forest because of the rain. That doesn't mean we didn't have fun, though! Some friends went to the gym, others played outside once the rain stopped, and they all spent time in the classroom.  Have a wonderful afternoon!
