AFC PINE AM

 The weather took a turn but the fun and learning didn’t. We explored the Collabratory since it was rainy out and mingled with some other friends.  Have a fun and safe evening if you’re out and about! See you next month ;)

 Today was another “it feels like summer” day. We had fun with Ms Amy and taking turns with some cool toys and then we got to have a school wide dance party to help celebrate 2 staff that have overcome breast cancer! Tomorrow is our pj day!

It was such a beautiful day we decided to take our learning outdoors today and partnered with Spruce and Willow friends in the “front yard”. A reminder that the PAT fundraiser is happening in the front lobby through the end of the week! Also happening this week, PJ day/Halloween themed shirt on Thursday Oct 31st (no costumes).

 Welcome back Pine friends! It is sure to be a fun week of extended summer like weather. This week we will continue to focus on the word TURN with fun ways to practice. Our centers explore movement, light and shadows, and some creepy crawlies. Thursday we plan to have some extra special fun exploring a pumpkin! Although we don’t do Halloween costumes, you are invited to wear themed pjs or your favorite spooky outfit!

 Ms Julie brought the fun today!

 Our friends did such a great job bringing the cuteness for pictures! Ms Amy helped teach our new word TURN using a light switch.

 Hello pine am friends. I (Ms Carrie) was out this morning and missed seeing everyone. It was a forest day but the other teachers told me they didn’t quite make it there. Sometimes we just have to go with the flow and that’s ok! It was a special day, it was a birthday! Happy 4th birthday to P!  Tomorrow is picture day, bring your best smile!!!

 Hi pine families, I hope you enjoyed your long weekend together! We are back in full swing in week #10.  We will be switching up our word of the week to TURN. This is a great word to use when we want something; take the opportunity to practice at home asking for “my turn”. We model the tap, look, and ask model with our hand extended out waiting for a friend to place an item in our hand. We have a visual for this if you are interested, just let me know. Turn can also be good for when reading bedtime stories, “turn the page”, and let your kiddo help. We are still exploring birds (where do birds live?), bugs ( how do bugs move?), babies ( how can a doctor take care of the baby?), music (how can each instrument make sounds?) and the color purple (what can you see around you that is purple?). 

 Can you believe this week is already over?! Have a great long weekend together!

 Happy Tuesday! We had fun matching bird eggs in our book

 Happy Monday! This week is a short one but will still be filled with lots of fun and learning. (Reminder, no school Thurs or Fri!) We continue to practice our word OPEN, explore birds, taking care of each other and fall sensory.
