Week 11

 Weekly Greetings!

Our first quarter is officially over, and I will be contacting you soon about Parent/Teacher conference times for November 10. With the short week last week, in addition to basketball and my absence for medical appointments the week before, Halloween preparations sort of crept up on me. We will have a class party on Tuesday after the Halloween parade, and I will provide nachos and popcorn. If you would like to join us, or send a treat in with your student, it would be most welcomed. The party will start after the costume parade.

On Tuesday, students can bring costumes as long as it does not distract them from the normal morning routine of reading and math assignments. During class, any masks or distracting accessories will have to be put away.  The Halloween parade will be from 2:00 to 2:15pm. It will start with the lower grades, and pass from grade to grade adding all the grades through fifth to march the halls.

Last week raced by with only three days, and we focused on completing the first quarter content in both reading and math. One highlight on Monday was a visit from the first grade for a reader's theater. Two students preformed a Mo Willem's Piggie and Elephant story for the class. It was really cute and nicely done.
Another thing the class did was make hearts to with a statement of appreciation for Mr. Holmes. October has been principal appreciation month. All the elementary students shared their thanks for all that Mr. Holmes does, and placed hearts on his office door. It was fun to show him we care.
The class will be starting new units in both reading and math this week. Also, homework will be sent home each night as usual Monday through Thursday.

Have a great week!

Kind Regards,

Mrs. Brown
