October!

 

There are so many fun things to learn in October!  We will learn about the part of the pumpkin and the pumpkin life cycle.  We will be learning about Africa and the animals that live there.  Spiders and bats are a favorite to look-in into this time of year as well an the composer Bach and Impressionist artists. We also have the United Children's Day Festivities on 10/30!  The Kinders have been busy sewing 26 peace flags for the class to display on the big day!
