Dear First Grade Families,

The class had a wonderful week back after the break! With beautiful weather during the early October days, it truly felt as if magic was in the air in the forest. Multiple wildlife sightings, including an owl drifting between trees near our platform, delighted and excited the class. The children seemed refreshed by the break and ready to immerse themselves in our Quality of Numbers Block. Finding examples in the world around them of One, Two, and Three provoked plenty of thought and imagination! The children enjoyed forming Arabic and Roman numerals in their Main Lesson Books as well as carefully drawing pictorial representations of each number. They are all increasingly self-assured in approaching their bookwork.

This week, we are exploring the qualities of numbers Four through Six. The children also learned to count to 10 last week in Mandarin, so it is all very numberrific right now!

Announcements and Reminders for First Grade:

Our Kingdom of Halloween class booth needs your support! Thank you to those who have signed up, and we will look forward to seeing more booth volunteering and general slots filled as soon as possible.
Please ensure your child brings rain boots daily to enable the class to visit the farm and creek.

Warmly,

Ki Michelle
