Hello Parents,
I hope everyone enjoyed the weekend! I wanted to thank you all again for sending in all the Halloween/pumpkin party goodies last week. Your support of our class is extremely appreciated!
This Tuesday, November 3rd is Election Day. I spoke to the children about voting last week and this week, on Tuesday, the children will be voting for their favorite snack. We will also be learning about spiders this week and doing a spider project.
Reminders:
– Please remember to complete the daily attestations each morning prior to coming to school.
-I will be putting together an online class book showcasing each child for each family to learn about the students in our class. I’ve only received 4 so far, I will publish the book next week. Please send me a private message answering the following questions about your child:
1. Who is in your family?
2. What do you do for fun at home?
3. What do you want to be when you grow up?
4. What is your favorite color?
5. What is your favorite animal?
