Important Dates to Remember!

Friday, October 18th - A parent is coming in early Friday to teach us  more about Frank Lloyd Wright.  Then we have the FUN RUN from 10-11 am.  If you are available, come cheer for your students.  Also, one of our students is moving to another classroom, so Friday is his last day.  We will have a little going away celebration Friday afternoon.

Monday, October 21st - KONA ICE Party!  Since the school reached it's fundraising goal for the Fun Run, we all get to enjoy some Kona Ice!  Thanks to all who participated and donated money to the school!

Wednesday, October 23rd - Room Parent Meeting at 2:00. The following parents have signed up to be room parents for the class:
Jean G., Doreen C., Cara C., Linda S., Monica N., Anne F., Jen K. and Laura M-B.  I know some of you aren't available, but if I can get a few to come to plan the Halloween party, you can e-mail the rest of the parents/class with the information discussed.  Please let me know who is available to attend.  We will need some activities, crafts, games, so please come to the room parent meeting ready with ideas! I will need one room parent to be the class treasurer.  You will be in charge of the class party money that has been collected (I think all but 2 students have contributed).  This money will be spent between the four parties this year (Halloween, Winter Holidays, Valentine's Day and end of year picnic) on things that don't get donated by the families.  The class has a good supply of paper goods and reusables, so that won't need to be purchased.

Thursday, October 24th - Morton Arboretum Field Trip.  Please have your students dress for the weather, as we will be outside rain or shine (or snow!).  They should dress in layers with good walking shoes that might get muddy .  They will be responsible for carrying anything they bring.  All students need a sack lunch, no sugary snacks or soda, but enough healthy food to give them energy to be outside all day.  Buses leave at 8:30 and return around 2:00. I will send another e-mail to the 4 parents who volunteered to chaperone.  

Friday, October 25th - Mini Museums - A parent will be coming in to help the students make mini museums!

Thursday, October 31st - Halloween.  We will have class from 8 am to 12 noon, then lunch from noon to 12:55.  Students are permitted to go home for lunch to change into costumes as long as I receive a note in the morning.  Otherwise, I will be in the room during lunch to help students get ready.  The parade around the school will start around 1:15 then we will be back in the room for the party until school is dismissed at 2:55.  If any students choose not to participate in the parade or party, they will go to the library for alternate activities.

Friday, November 1st - My last day :(
