Hi families: Although Jowonio does not as a school address the various holiday celebrations that occur during this time of year, we do focus on some of the common elements that exist among the various holidays. With this in mind our first theme of this unit will be “Food”. This theme will be from November 17-November 25. Some of the concepts and skills that we will focus on during this time will be, colors, the science of cooking, opposites, colors, scissor skills, foods that help bodies stay healthy, following written and verbal directions, sharing with others, and writing skills. This week we will start an Ocean Room favorite, “Friends Lunch”. Each day 2 children are selected to eat lunch together at the small table in the Pretend Area. This is a quiet environment away from the group where children can get to know each other better and connect more intimately with individual classmates. We are certain that the children will enjoy this as much as previous Ocean Room children. Please remember to send in appropriate outside clothing so that your child will be comfortable playing on the playground. We will try to get outside as much as possible, even on snowy days. If you would like to leave an outside outfit at school, we can store this in your child’s cubbie. It is very, very helpful if mittens and hats are labeled with your child’s name. Field trips during the winter months will be less frequent than they have been during the good weather. The classroom staff is very cautious about driving with the children during the winter. More than likely field trips will be limited to one each month and will be on days when the weather forecast does not predict any snow or ice. We appreciate your understanding regarding this, and before long we will be back to our every other week field trip schedule.
