We finished our apple unit last week. On Friday, we made our own crockpot applesauce. Most of the children thought it was delicious.

This week we are learning about trees and leaves. The children may bring leaves and seeds in from home. We learned that deciduous trees loose their leaves and coniferous trees do not. We talked about the parts of a tree snf how a tree grows. We will find out why leaves change color.

Next week will be busy. There is no school on Monday. Wednesday is picture day. Friday is our field trip to Howell's pumpkin farm. Permission slips will go out at the end of the week.

A reminder: Book orders are due on Friday. You can choose to order online or by sending a check made out to Scholastic with the order form.
