Pumpkin Carving

This year will mark the first pumpkin carving competition

at the WOHE Fall Festival!  Please join us as we create a pumpkin patch created by our WOHE families!

To participate, simply carve a pumpkin at home and bring it to WOHE Friday, October 5th for display at the Fall Festival. Pumpkin entries can arrive after 6:00 p.m. The anonymous judging will be held that evening with final results being announced at 7:30 p.m.

Fall Wonder Table

This week I sent home a letter requesting fall items to place on our Wonder Table.  These can be pumpkins, gourds, fall leaves, etc. These items will help us learn about observing, asking questions, and investigating answers.

Family Photo

I would love to have every student bring a small family photo to display in our classroom.  This will help your kiddo feel more at home, and I know they will be super excited to show off their family.
