Halloween 1

This has been our first week of Halloween fun. We made jack-o-lanterns with our hand prints, glittery bats, talked about the inside of pumpkins, made collages using cookie cutters, and focused on the letter Mm. Next week we will be focusing on the letter Jj and starting our number of the week series with the number 1.


Halloween parties will be Wed. and Thurs. afternoon. Please do not send your child already wearing their costume we will be changing into them after rest time and switching out of them prior to coming home. If you choose to send a treat for our classroom trick-or-treating please be aware we have allergies including: red dye #40, honey, cherries, strawberries, apples, and tomatoes. Please send prepackaged goodies that would be fine being placed in a bag (sorry no cupcakes!) as their treats will be sent home in their backpacks and we do not want a squishy mess.

Next week is also Red Ribbon Week. Pre-K students will have the chance to wear red on Mon/Tues and green on Wed/Thurs to show their support.

Thank you to everyone who purchased books at the Scholastic book fair during conference night. Your purchases helped make it possible to have books donated to our classroom. Also, thank you to those who have individually donated books to our room. Parent-Teacher conferences was a success and I am happy that so many families were able to meet. If you were unable to attend your scheduled time and would like to still meet please contact me to set up a day and time.

Our first families being involved event was this morning and was a lot of fun! There were so many great looking jack-o-lanterns heading home today.


Reminders:
-picture retake days are Tuesday the 27th and Wednesday the 28th in the morning. If you are having your student retake their photo, please send back the original packet of pictures.
-the next Families being involved event will be Friday, November 20th in the morning. More information is being sent home next week.
-Pajama day is Wednesday, Nov. 4th and Thursday, Nov. 5th. Please send additional clothes to wear for recess if needed. You may also send a stuffed animal to school on these days.
