Cold Weather, Pajama Day, and Thankful Potluck


We had so much fun during our Spooky Week! On  Monday, we paint stamped ghosts with our FEET!!!


On Tuesday we mixed red and yellow paint for our orange jack-o-lanterns. We made ourselves into Wild Things on Wednesday and on Thursday we reenacted The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything.


Cold Weather
Wisconsin has crazy weather in the fall...some days are very cold and others are quite warm. And sometimes it is really cold in the morning and really warm by afternoon. So please dress your child in layers so that he/she can easily adjust to the changing temperatures. As it gets consistently colder, please send your child with a hat, warm jacket and mittens/gloves.

We do go outside nearly everyday. Sometimes it is too wet to play outside, but not still raining, we may take a walk around the school neighborhood. Please note that we will not be sending home a permission slip for these instances.

Please be sure all your child’s clothing is labeled, as we are not going to be familiar with his/her new coats, warm clothes, etc. Plus hats & gloves are often the same as our friends’.

Teddy Bear & Pajama Day
On Thursday, November 10th we will wear our clean pajamas to school! Please also have your child bring his/her favorite teddy bear (or other stuffed animal) for a day filled with special activities with our fluffy friends.

Thankful Potluck
On Tuesday, November 22nd, we are having a “Thankful” Potluck. We will be using the banquet area next door at Trinity Lutheran Church. The potluck times will be 8:45-10:00am & 12:45-2:00pm. Guests are encouraged & welcome!

We need volunteers to:
  • Help Set Up
  • Bring Potluck Items—turkey slices, buns, cheese, sausage, fruit, juice, or milk.
  • Clean Up
Please call, e-mail bethfox71@yahoo.com, stop in, or send a note with your child to let us know what you are able to help with. Thank you!
