Bible Time
In Bible we have learned the story of Joseph, a man greatly wronged by his brothers. Joseph was able to walk in forgiveness toward them, thus preparing the way for God to save and greatly bless the family.

Math Time
In Math we once again practiced classification, and some proudly did that during playtime by classifying the jungle animals. We also began to learn about arranging things in size order. That can be a little tricky. And we have made our way to the number 10.

Will It Sink Or Float
In Science we found many ways we use water every day. We experimented seeing which things would float or sink in a tub of water. There were some surprises!

We Love Purple
On November 4th a special guest came to our class and school. Miss Purple made her annual appearance in Pre-K 4, wearing her favorite purple hair, sweater and sunglasses. We all grabbed musical instruments and went on a short parade through the school, making noise and singing about the color purple. It was fun. But she only comes once a year, so it will be a long time before we see her again.

Fun In PreK 4
November has been a busy month in Pre-K 4. We continue to march through the alphabet one letter at a time. When we get to the letter Oo, we will start writing the letter of the week. That will be an exciting time! We have also learned the major shapes and colors. And in honor of Thanksgiving, have learned about the Pilgrims, the Mayflower and the Native Americans who befriended them. For Thanksgiving, we had a sharing snack in which we brought snacks to share with our classmates. Yummy!

Resource Room
November is a wonderful month. Students are now finding out what is really hard for them and what is easy. Many are studying and using time more effectively. Those who have been bringing in copies of their classes from Edline are some of the students who have progressed the most. However some students are finding out the consequences of poor study habits verses good study habits. This month I will focus on test corrections, remediation and encouraging them to”… press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:14
