September 16th-20th
There are four seasons in a year: spring, summer, fall and winter. Our focus this week was all about seasons. We read and discussed A Tree for All Seasons by Robin Benard. How does a tree change throughout the seasons? Our story focus this week was all about the author. Who is the author? What is his/her job within the story?

Vocabulary from the book:
- bare: not filled or covered
- cozy: giving a feeling of warmth
- bud: a swelling on a plant that can grow into a new part
- collect: to gather together
- chilly: feeling cold
Have a great fall break!!! If you will still be in town here are some things you can do:
- Talk about what different activities you do in each season, such as sledding in winter, pick apples in the fall, etc.
- Draw a picture of a tree in each of the seasons.
- Go pick apples in North Georgia.
We had a great time at the Art Barn on Thursday and had a great time being paired up with Mrs. Powers' Kindergarten Class! Enjoy the pictures below!
