Class Pet Pete the Pig is excited to spend this weekend with Ryan! Please help your child document Pete’s weekend through photos and/or drawings and words in his journal. Thanks! Getting ready for Winter      As winter approaches please think about helping your child learn to dress for recess independently. We are here to help, but 21 kids= 42 boots and 42 mittens! The more quickly we can get ready, the more time we will have to play outside!               We will go out to play unless it is extremely cold, so please send your child with hats/gloves and boots/snowpants if it is snowy!
