Week of 10/31

Thank you for making the time to meet with me last week.  I enjoyed meeting with each of you and found it very productive.  I hope you found it worth your time.  We had 100% attendance, so thank you!!

• Send in plain white T-shirt
• Wear Halloween Costumes to school on Monday.
• Check out Blog for updated pics and videos

My class & Mrs. Jenkerson's class are to wear their costumes TO SCHOOL. This rule is different for the other students in the school, so please do not be confused! We will be celebrating as a class in the AM and don't have much time to change into our costumes. Parents are invited to arrive at 10:15 to begin setting up. We will be walking around the school in our Halloween Parade from 10:15-10:30. When we return, the festivities will begin. Our party will be from 10:30-11:30. If you plan to attend, you may sign your child out at 11:30 and dismiss. If your child remains at school, they will follow their normal dismissal routine (bus, pick up, Fun2,3)

It seems like a lot, so don't forget to keep it fun.  You can play sight word "Go Fish" or "Memory".  You can visit Spelling City and use your child's log in and play games or test what they know.  You can hide them around the room and when they find it, they have to read what the word says, or YOU get the card instead!
