As we begin our second month of school, we have nicely settled into classroom routines and programs are all well underway. Thank-you for returning the planner and home reading books each day. Remember you can use your child’s home reading book to put a note in to me as I read them first thing each morning. Also, I will be giving a prize to your child when they have completed their first 25 pages so count at home and ask them to let me know when they reach 25, 50, 75 etc. Lunch and snack times are going more smoothly now as the children have learned to choose a healthy snack (fruit or vegetable) to eat at recess. October promises to be a busy and exciting month for the children. Below are the highlights for the month of October.
October 10 – Special Thanksgiving craft – each child will need one apple (any kind/fresh/not cut) for this craft.
October 11 – Individual Photo Day
October 14 – Thanksgiving (school not in session)
October 18 – field study to Aldor Acres pumpkin farm (notice home soon)
October 21 – Interim reports sent home
October 25 – Professional Development Day (no school for children)
October 31 – Halloween Celebration: We will be having a Halloween party at school. Children may wear their costumes to school and bring clothes to change into at lunch. A special note about the party will be sent home soon regarding party food. I will require several parent volunteers for the party. If you can help, please put a note in your child’s home reading book. Younger siblings are welcome.
