We enjoyed warm roasted foods including sweet potatoes, brussel sprouts, red potatoes, and onions. Pickled vegetables are a staple in our lunch. This week we had pickled button mushrooms, banana peppers, and beets.

Several activities students enjoyed this week were acorn collecting, acorn cracking, water color painting, leaf tracing, weaving, tree climbing, dirt sledding, planting seeds, learning about vermicomposting, leaf raking, and celebrating Josie’s [belated] birthday! What an action packed week!

Olivia’s family baked pumpkin chocolate chip cookies to share with the class. Thank you!!

Leo’s family donated red wiggler worms and a vermicomposting bin for our classroom composting project! Thank you!!

Charlie Mustard at Jittery Joe’s roaster donated burlap sacks to expand our open-ended play materials. Students enjoyed filling them with leaves to create a punching bag and tree swing! The opportunities for play are endless!
