Halloween Party
Please come and watch our parade. It will be outside (weather permitting) in
the back of the school. We will begin at
1:40 on Friday, Oct. 31, and will parade outside beginning in front of the
school and will circle around to the back of the school. We will then return to our classrooms for
our party.
The students should bring their costumes to
school. We will help them get dressed prior to the parade. Since the students will have a treat and a
drink at the party, no additional candy treats are necessary.
In math,
we have been working on using a ten frame to help us learn how to add numbers
up to 10. We always start on the top row
and move from left to right. Ask your
child to tell you about it.
Ieva will be our “student
of the week” during the week of October 13-17.
Conference
Sign-ups
Conferences will be held on Tuesday,
October 28 from 3:45-6:00 and Wednesday, October 29 from 3:45-7:15 I will be sending a link along with this
newsletter for you to sign up for a time on the computer. The conference will be held in our
classroom. If none of the times work for
you, I will try to find a time that is convenient for both of us. If you do not have a computer, you can send
me a time that works for you and I will enter it into the computer. If those times are already taken, then I will
send you a schedule of the times that are left once everyone has signed up.
