Where did our nice Fall weather go? Hopefully the rain will taper off this week as we approach our school wide Halloween parade this Friday at 8:15. Mrs. Ortiz is organizing our Halloween party and is looking for volunteers to help out. We'll probably begin after recess around 9:30 and go for an hour or so. Also, if anyone has the movie Monsters Inc. we could borrow, that would be great. I will be giving the regular spelling test this Friday as well as a timed test for the 3s, 4s, and 5s. So although we will be having fun, there will still be some academics.
Spelling/math homework packets will go home Monday and are due on Friday. Please be sure to sign EVERY page of your child's packet. Many packets turned in do not have the student's name on every page or parent signature. Also, be sure your child completes his/her Lit Circle assignment. They need to read the assigned pages or chapters written in the upper right hand corner of the job. Your child's job should only cover this assigned section of the book. HINT: It may be helpful to write a draft and then transfer the content to the final paper. Be sure your child brings the BOOK AND JOB to school every Wednesday. Students give their reports at 8:05 AM. Be sure to have your child practice reading his/her report, so he/she can read it aloud on 10/27.
On Thursday, November 4th, we are scheduled to go to the Aptos Museum from 9:30-10:30. Permission forms will be sent home this week. If you are interested in chaperoning, let me know. Driver paperwork should be submitted to the office ASAP. If you drove to the County fair, we still have your insurance info in the office.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
