Apples come from trees and we can perform random acts of kindness!

We began studying about trees with a few apple lessons.  Our apple turnovers were SO yummy!  Thank you to those that contributed by sending in ingredients.  It was hard for us to decide if we liked turnovers, fresh cut apples, or applesauce best.  We talked about how those yummy apples began with a seed that grew into a tree.  I hope you all enjoyed your nature walk to find leaves.  We sure enjoyed sharing and comparing leaves found.  We sorted them by looking at different attributes including size, shape, and color.    

We have almost filled our second bucket with only 3 more acts of kindness to go!

We had two days this past week that everyone earned a super star.  I was SO proud of them that I let everyone get a treasure chest prize! 

We are going to the library daily in partner groups.  Mrs. Stephens and Mrs. Simpson have both complimented us on good behavior and manners.  You should be very proud of your children!  I sure am!!!

I am looking forward to another great week at OES!  I cannot wait to meet all the grandparents tomorrow!  Please continue working hard at home with your child!  Together, we can do more....SO much more!!!
