Thanksgiving Celebration
Notes: What fun we had at the pumpkin patch last month! We hope that you’ve all been able to access the photos on Google Photos. If not, please see Miss Cindy to have a link emailed to you. As the weather turns more to rainy days, please provide a pair of sturdy shoes if your child wears rain boots to school. It is really difficult to run and play in the gym when wearing boots, and it makes our large-‐motor assessment of our students more difficult. We hope that in this season of Thanksgiving that you take a moment to count your blessings. Know that when we count ours, our Little Sprouts families are among them! -‐ The Little Sprouts Staff
