Happy Weekend Everyone,
Thank you to all who have been able to support our students with our Fun Run fundraiser. This weekend we are issuing a special challenge! Your child can earn a bonus prize simply by getting a qualifying pledge this weekend only. Check out funrun.com for details! And if you’re looking for the easiest way to ask for a pledge, just upload a photo of your student to funrun.com to create a personalized Student Star Video. This fun, hilarious video starring your child can be shared by email or social media to connect with sponsors and ask for a pledge. If you haven’t registered your child on funrun.com, search for your school or use our school registration code: 935184. The first class who has 100 percent of students registered gets to slime Ms. Rene on Fun Run day. It is super easy. Just get on funrun.com to register. We only have 3 kids left to register!
The actual Fun Run is this coming Wednesday. Lower el will be running at 9:15 am. All families and parents are encouraged to come and support.
Thank you again for helping our class!
The school Cultural/International Festival is coming up quickly. It is just under 2 weeks away on Friday November 22. Our class will be presenting on countries in Europe. If you and your child have a particular country they want to present on, please email and tell me by Tuesday. If I do not hear from you I will randomly assign your child a country. The students will need to find a creative way to share what they have learned with the whole school. This project will need to include the country’s flag, a land form in the country, and how fundamental human needs are met there (such as transportation, food, housing, etc. ). Students may include any other interesting facts about their particular country. They will need to have a display of their country. This can include pictures, artifacts, clothing, music, and food. Students will present their projects individually in their own class in addition to presenting to the entire school during the cultural festival. During the festival students will have the opportunity to visit each classroom and experience all of the continents and countries throughout the world as they view the presentations prepared by their schoolmates. Each student is expected to participate in the festival.
Don’t forget, every Monday night in November is spirit night at Pizza Pie Cafe. Come get dinner and support our school.
***Don’t forget, you have until midnight tonight to order Original Works and ensure they arrive before the holidays.
Just a reminder that we will not have school the whole week of November 25 in celebration on Thanksgiving.
As always, thanks for all you do!
