Happy October! How does September go by so fast?? I suppose that’s a good thing since it’s the month I usually block out of my memory each school year. I have a wonderful new group of kiddos this year and I am looking forward to a great year together. This year I have 12 kids (yes, 12!) which is the most I have ever had. I finally have girls this year (woo hoo!) and I have an awesome new aide in my class this year. All in all life is good in our classroom. It’s feeling like fall at home now too. This week the temperature has dropped a lot in Buffalo and the leaves are starting to change. Tonight my family and I went to get pumpkins and mums for the porch since it’s officially October. My brother is getting married on Saturday so we are hoping for a beautiful October day for them!
Over the next two months our theme in the classroom is apples and pumpkins! We will take a trip to a pumpkin patch and we will have our Apple Investigation Day in a few weeks.
Here is a visual tour of the crafts we will be doing this month. Our October crafts are some of my favorites!
