October has shown us that we as a community are stronger then ever. I would like to take the time to thank our first responders, citizens, and volunteers for their efforts in making our community safer.

Our FMS family is not alone when it comes to volunteering. I have two special grandparents I would like to acknowledge for their ambitious desire to assist our children on a weekly basis. These two great people are Ms. Barbara and Ms. Jennie. Thank you ladies for your time and effort, the children love when you join us. This kindness is the foundation in making our world more enjoyable and comforting.

Let’s take a look at our progress from the plantings of September!

September roots have taken hold in our green house. Our children have also found their roots and are flourishing in our outdoor environment. They have found their footing and have grown in comfort.

Our imagination café is now open for business, what a hit this has been! Our café not only creates great business ideas, but allows the children to thrive while exploring finance and their imagination.

Speaking of imagination, Ms. Erica’s class visited our outdoor classroom and put their imagination to work. Look what they created by using what mother nature had to offer.

We have also had some fun pumpkin carving!

Outside I have many activities including painting, Legos, and wooden blocks (may look easy to us).

Here children spend time:

Designing

Balancing

Measuring

Engineering

Architectural feats for children.

Our weather has slowly been changing, with this in mind, please provide your child with a jacket or a sweater. Our mornings are colder and our afternoons are warming; therefore, please dress your children in layers. When a child is uncomfortable, it becomes difficult for them to concentrate. Set them up for success!

Remember learning is endless,

Love Ms. Val

P.S. we will have a lot to be thankful for in November, make sure you visit!
