October 8th - 12th

What an exciting week we had last week! There was a lot of fun and a lot of creativity!

If you have not done so already, please make sure to sign up for a conference time and fill out the permissions slip for the field trip. Our field trip day is October 26th, 9-11 am to the Pumpkin Patch. We also need drivers! 
(We will only be able to go if we have enough transportation.)

Please check your child's Friday Folder... Lots of good stuff came home! The October reading log was included along with "Work Mats" for the month. 

What are Work Mats? Well, many of you have asked how you can help support your child's learning at home. These mats are a great way to do this! This is not a required thing and will not be graded - but if your child wants to return them to school, we will celebrate it!

We love to see the reading logs come back to school as well! As a grade level we are tracking the number of books we are reading each month as part of the "Pizza Hut Book It!" program. Each time your child returns their reading log, they get a free personal pizza from Pizza Hut and they get to log it on our chart in the hallway for an end of year celebration!

We will also be doing a Book Character Day on October 31st! There was a "book report" template included in Friday Folders as well. Each student can dress up as any character that they find in a book and complete a mini report about it. They will read their reports in class that day and we will have a party and a school wide Parade of Characters!

As the weather changes, please make sure to send a sweatshirt or jacket with your child each day. The weather can be unpredictable and we try to go outside as much as possible!
