Hello All,
Conferences are this week. If you haven’t been able to sign up, please do. There are still plenty of openings. The website is http://www.wejoinin.com/sheets/fwijs. Because it is conferences, school gets out at 1 pm, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. We DO NOT have school Thursday and Friday.
School pictures are Tuesday, October 21. A packet to order pictures was sent home. If you need another, please let me know.
Our field trip to Black Island Farms is next Thursday, October 23. You will need to make sure your child is dropped of at the Farms, 3178 S 3000 W, Syracuse, UT 84075, by 8:45 that morning. If you are unable to get them there, there are a few certified drivers who will be available. Please let me know if you are a certified driver, through the school, if you can take some kids to Black Island Farms, and how many. You will then need to make sure your child is picked up at 1:30 that afternoon. We will be using our classroom field trip funds to pay for our field trip. However, if you would like to donate money for it, tickets are $4.oo. You can use the link https://secureinstantpayments.com/sip/cart/event.php?EID=1113. Again this is not required.
The Fall Festival is Friday, October 24, from 4:30-7:30. Wristbands and tickets can be purchased early this coming week during parent teacher conferences, or October 20-24 before or after school. Early bird prices are $7 unlimited rides, $10 unlimited rides and games, or 4 tickets for $1. At the door it is a dollar more for unlimited ride and/or games.
The last week of October will be Red Ribbon week.

Our next home project will be due anytime the last week of November. It will be a book report. The project can be done on a book your child can read alone or on one you read together. I will be sending home and posting on the blog a form that needs to be filled out. Along with using the form to present their report, please have your child decorate a pumpkin like a character from the book. If you are unable to do this, please let me know.
Have a good evening.
Ms. Jalee
