Hi Parents!

Here is what we did today!

We went to library. We got a book and we read a book. (AJ)

We did Fundations times. We learned the letter c. We practiced our other letters. We colored the cat picture. (Maclyn)

We did math. We went to the computer lab. We did ST Math. (Isaac and Emma)

We carved a pumpkin and felt inside. It was slimy. We looked inside and did a pumpkin page. (Brooklynn and Audylynn)

We ate lunch. (Amane)

We did the calendar. (Blake and Britt)

We did Daily 5 and some kids read with Mrs. Hotchkiss. (Russell)

We did our poem. (Erin)

We are doing closing meeting and snack. (Xander)

We did the weather. It was sunny and it was in the green on the thermometer. (Wilson)

We did days in school. We have been in school 43 days. (Ismael)

The day after tomorrow we are having our field trip. (Dempsey)

I am getting a head start on Parent Teacher Conference scheduling this year. Please note…other teachers will not being sending home information on PTC until the end of this week! When you have time please fill out this form https://goo.gl/forms/lO7JouK46ljG7UsQ2
I will be sending a paper copy home this Friday if you would prefer to fill it out that way. Thanks!

Field Trip!
This Friday, October 20th, Kindergarten will be going on a field trip to Peach Tree Farms. We will be leaving the school at 9:30 a.m. and returning to school by 1:00p.m. We will be eating lunch there so your child will need to bring a lunch from home in a throw away sack or order a sack lunch from school. Please do not send your child’s lunch box. Paper/plastic sacks work best as they can be thrown away. Students must wear closed toe shoes. Tennis shoes are recommended!

I have 12 parents who have signed up to come! Parents will need to provide their own transportation to the pumpkin patch. If you can, please bring a blanket to sit on for our picnic lunch!

Halloween
Fall Celebration With Books
Tuesday October 31st

Your child may wear a costume to school (book characters encouraged)

No masks, scary make-up, wigs, weapons or props--anything that could be a distraction.

The costume must be something that can be worn all day.  Tennis shoes are encouraged.

Since the focus is on reading your child can bring a favorite book or two from home as well as a small stuffed animal (it needs to be able to fit in the backpack).

I am looking for 3-5 parent volunteers to come read to small groups of kids on October 31st! This will be from 1 to 1:30 pm. After about 10 minutes the kids will rotate to a new parent reader. You can bring a favorite book from home or I will have lots of Halloween books in my classroom library to choose from. You are welcome to dress up and join in on the fun! Please let me know if you are interested! Thanks!
