Trish’s Tiny Tots November Newsletter
 
Welcome November! This is a wonderful time of the year we can all appreciate the blessings we have all been given. November is the perfect month to honor our family and friends with thankful hearts. 

 This Month: During this month we will be talking about what it means to be thankful for all of life’s little blessings. We will continue studying our five senses and spend time discussing the many feelings and emotions we have. During art time we will be creating displays of yummy Fall foods, turkey’s, Pilgrims, Native American’s and scare crows! We will continue the process of learning each individual letter per week as well as additional curriculum such as two letter sounds, and site words. We will learn the sounds of the letters, the sign and practice writing them. The children have gotten a great start on their ABC books, and are looking forward to showing off their finished products to their families! We will talk about shapes, colors and numbers and continue to review them for consistency. We will be learning about the months of the year, days of the week and the weather! Each week we will also talk about principles such as kindness, honesty, forgiveness and patience. I encourage you all to review the work the children take home. I would like them to share with you the topics they learn about, so as parents you can continue to review with them for consistency.

 Don’t Forget About Your Family Pictures: I love for the children to be able to talk with the other children about their families. Family photos in the classrooms facilitate these conversations. I am working on a new special bulletin board or area to post pictures. I am asking you to send one or two family photos to be displayed in this area. The children really like it when grandparents and pets are included in the pictures too. Please help to complete our family photo area by providing pictures as soon as you can J

 Birthdays: Happy Birthday to our big dude Griffin who turns 7 years old on the 5th. We love you! May this year fill your days with amazing adventures and lasting memories!

Closures: Trish’s Tiny Tots will be closed in observance of Veterans Day on Monday November 12th and also in observance of Thanksgiving from Wednesday November 21st through Friday November 23rd.
