It was nice to see so many of you at the Halloween Carnival. It appeared to be a huge success. Thank you to all of you that helped with driving to the Pumpkin Patch. The children thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon. Thank you to the Pellicano's for supplying the snack. Everything was greatly appreciated.
We are entering Red Ribbon Week. Your child should have brought home a flyer that gives information on all of the activities for the week. The activities are as follows:
Monday: Wear a hat
Tuesday: Wear sweats The first graders may bring books to read and healthy snacks. We do not need the pillows or blankets.
Wednesday: Wear crazy socks
Thursday: Wear shades(sunglasses)
Friday: Come in your Halloween costume
The above is all optional. When sending your child to school on Friday in his/her Halloween costume please make sure that it is appropriate.
Mrs. Bellini's class is practicing for the Thanksgiving program. That will be here before you know it.
Our first grade curriculum is pretty much the same. We will be finishing up Level 2 in reading this week. Please continue to work on vocabulary. In Math we will be learning about fact families. In Science we are talking about weather and the 4 seasons. In P.E. we will be beginning a bean bag unit. We will be talking about "saying no to drugs" this week and your children have a coloring book that deals with this subject.
