Community Workers THEME!:) 9/21-25, 9/29-10/2

Hello!
We had a great two weeks talking all about the children and about the body. I hope you enjoyed seeing all of the fun projects we did come home! Over the next two weeks into October, we will be talking about Community Workers and learn about their jobs. There are some great language experiences planned and we even have some special guests coming!

Thanks!
Sarah
