Dear Parents!
Every year, I do a very messy pumpkin lesson with the kindergartners. It's a fun lesson where students continue to develop their fine motor skills, counting skills, organizational exploration skills. In order for this to happen, I need your help.
I'm looking for WHOLE UNCUT pumpkins; baby bear size (a little bigger than a soft ball) all the way up to giant ones! I'd need 5-6 per class, so I'm looking for a total of 30-40 pumpkins. Color and shape does not matter.
If you would like to donate up until November 9th, please bring your pumpkins to the outdoor classroom where we hold class and leave them by the whiteboard, or drop them off to your child's regular classroom and I'll pick them up.
Thanks ahead of time for your contribution!

How can you help AEA help your kids?

the EASIEST way for us to earn money for our school...will you help us?

Fall Fundraiser
November 6th is the is the last day of the ONLINE portion of our fundraising campaign-remember that this fundraiser is what supports our specials like Music, Art, gardening, science and more.
Please remember that there will be many fundraising opportunities....
we hope that you will take part in the ones that speak to you and leave the others with little judgegment.
The way that you can ALWAYS help our school is by making a monthly pledge of $30/month.
That is just a dollar a day....
if everyone did this then we would not need to "fund-raise" in this traditional sense to provide the extras that AEA offers our kids.

Academies believes strongly in growing readers. The Scholastic Book Fair
provides our students with a chance to purchase books for their own collection,
as well as raise Scholastic dollars for our library and classroom book
collections. It is also a great place to buy books for gifts for the
winter holidays. The book fair runs Friday Nov. 9th to Friday Nov. 16th.
Scholastic books are available in English and Spanish and may be purchased with cash, check or
credit card. German books
are also available, but are cash or check only, absolutely no holds.

Writing:
Writing:
We will continue to write short sentences
Heute ist Montag.
Heute ist Montag.
Today is Monday....learning to start
with a capital use two finger spaces and to always remember a period at the
end.
Along with this sentence the kids will have to draw a picture that represents the words they wrote. They can make the connection that on Monday, they will play at recess or they drove in the car to school. They will know to avoid drawing something that they like such as a rainbow because they did not see one on Monday. Our pictures match our words.
Our names are still on our list of things to continue to improve on, so please work on this at home as well.
