We're busy getting ready for our prayer service and feast next week! This is a wonderful time to sit back and reflect on the things we are grateful for. :)
While finishing up our preparation for our event, we are still in need of Thanksgiving plates (approx. 90), 1-2 large jugs of apple juice, and napkins. If you would be willing/able to provide these things, it would be greatly appreciated! These items are not something that would need to be brought to school on Friday, but just let us know if they'll be here next week. Thank you so much! All other items should be to school tomorrow.
Today we did some more writing with adjectives. We used our story "Animal Babies in Grasslands", and talked about how the animals can be described. Then, we wrote a sentence describing the giraffe and made a picture to go along with it. Our writing is getting pretty good!

This week we're spending a lot of time talking about things that we are grateful and thankful for. With the recent devastation in Illinois, it makes us reflect more and appreciate the gifts God has given us!
Our Prayer Service and feast are next Tuesday, November 26th at 11:30. We will begin with the Prayer Service then head into the cafeteria for our meal. Students WILL NOT need hot or cold lunches on this day. This feast will take the place of our lunch. If you have not turned in your RSVP slip, please do so as soon as possible.
Thank goodness the snow is gone (for now)! (I'm not ready for all of that yet!) :) However, when it does return, please send your child's snow clothes in a separate bag. It is important that ALL ITEMS are labeled with your child's name. Also, it's helpful to have an extra pair of mittens/gloves and socks.
I'm thankful for you all!

I hope everyone survived the Halloween weekend and didn't eat too much candy! We're back to our regular schedule here at school and this week we began our science unit "Force and Motion" with the K4 class. So far we've talked about how living AND nonliving things move. What makes them move? What are some words that describe how things move? We'll be experimenting a little more this week with gravity as well. How does this affect things moving?
St. Joe's student council is sponsoring a food drive for the Muskego Food Pantry. It will run from November 4th-18th. They are running this in a contest format. They will be averaging out the amount of goods collected with the amount of students in each wing. First prize is a dress down day!
Please save the date of Tuesday, November 26th for our K4/K5 prayer service and feast. Details are still being finalized, however the date is set. Each child is allowed to bring 2 adults. Watch for more information to come! We will be looking for parents to help us out with set-up, possible preparation of food, serving, and clean-up. Let me know if you'd be willing to help out!
The weather is getting colder now, and before you know it, the snow will be upon us. Please make sure that your child has gloves, a hat and a warm coat for recess time. A great thing to practice at home is zipping jackets and tying shoes. As you can imagine, these little details take lots of extra minutes in our day. Especially when we get into those snow pants, etc!
