In Kindergarten this week we practiced identifying, printing and making the sound of the letter Dd. We found out that dog, dinosaurs, donuts, Dane, dad, ducks, door and dance all start with the letter D. We looked at ladybugs in the bug box and then practiced a guided drawing. We painted dogs, dinosaurs and ducks, looked for dinosaurs in the rice table, played with dinosaurs at the block center, made letter D dinosaurs and dogs (take a look at them outside our door) and ended the week making donuts! The kids thought they were DELICIOUS! We read name stories; Just Dog, My Name is Elizabeth and Chrysanthemum and did a puzzle with our names to create a graph of how many letters are in our names. At circle time, for movement breaks, we have been working on yoga balancing poses. This helps build balance and core strength which is very important in all our big muscle moving. Ask your child if they remember tree pose, mountain pose and surfer! 
For next week, look for the October class newsletter to come out! (already) We have our Bus Barns field trip on Tuesday! (yippee) And don't forget class on Friday. We will be learning about the letter Ff and going for a fall walk to look for seasonal changes! Library will be on our regular scheduled day of Thursday.Enjoy the weekend and we will see everyone on Monday!
