We made sand castles in the sand table.
Don't forget to send in a box to school. We will make different buildings with our boxes.

We are going on a field trip! We will visit the Kohl Children's Museum in Glenview, Illinois on November 17th. Both classes will go together. All children need to be at school at 8:50. We will leave school at 9am and return by 2pm. Please join us if you can!
We will visit the "Build a House" and "Little Builder" exhibit. In November, we will learn about fruits and vegetable and have a grocery store in our room. We will visit the "Dominick's grocery store" exhibit at the Museum too! Look for more information and the permission slip.
