The kids were busy with a variety of other activities including: painting, working with clay, having a social lesson on good listening skills with Sra. Gregor, going for a nature walk, going to the computer lab, and putting on a play of Los Tres Cerditos (The Three Little Pigs)! This week, we also checked out books from the library for the first time. We ended the week with Talleres with Sra. Wieber's class. The kids could choose from building a tall block tower, art, or drawing with chalk.
Sra. Foreman, our Spanish reading teacher, is taking our class to the St. Louis Park Public Library on Friday, October 6th! We want to foster a love of reading, and are excited to make a special walking trip to celebrate that. I sent a permission form home in your child's folder. Please fill it out and return it to school as soon as possible.

Last week, we met Sra. VanDeWalker, our library/media specialist. This week, we got to check out books! We will go to the library each week on Thursday. They each checked out two books this week, but will bring home two books in Spanish and one book in English for the rest of the year. Please make sure that all of their books make it back into your child's backpack on Thursday morning so that they can check out new books each week.
