Hello All!
Last week was Red Ribbon week. We had a guest speaker on Monday, got wrist bands Tuesday, had a coloring contest Wednesday, and had the door decorating contest Friday. We did a combined door with Ms. Kirsten. Ms. Kirsten’s class won the contest for upper el and our class tied with Ms. Holly in lower el. We will get a pizza party for our prize. I want to say a big thank you to Ms. Kirsten and her class. They came up with the idea and we helped with the decorating. Here is a picture of the final product.
A big thank you to everyone who was able to come on the field trip with us Thursday. A special thanks to one of our room moms, Ms. Tiffani, for putting the car pools together so all the kids could have a ride to and from. The morning started out cold but the day did warm up and we had a great time. I will add another post with some pictures of our adventures.
I hope many of you were able to attend the Fall Festival Friday night. My kids and I were there for the first hour and a half and my 3 year old had a wonderful time.
Halloween week is upon us. We have our class Halloween party Tuesday afternoon. If you signed up to donate something, you can send it tomorrow or Tuesday. We will also be doing some fun Halloween science activities with Ms. Kirsten’s class earlier that morning. We have been doing some Halloween themed things in class. Friday we made dice. One had characters, one had settings, one had a main idea, and one had a story starter. We then rolled them to write some stories. We have been working on a personal narrative about a time we were scared.
As you and your children go trick-or-treating Tuesday, please practice safety. We want all the kids to have fun and be safe.
Home projects are due this week if your child has not already presented. We had some awesome ones this past week. I am excited to see the rest.
Lastly, Friday I sent home the information on the kids original works. The kids worked hard on these pieces of art. If you are able, please order something with their art on it. The proceeds from this go directly to our class. We can decide how we want to use the money. Last year we went on more field trips and also order many different colors of stamp pads for some works we have in the classroom. I hope to be able to use the proceeds for some fun things again this year. I also sent home pictures with the kids Friday.
Enjoy the rest of your night.
Thanks for everything.
