October 21/21

Halloween is next week!  As mentioned we will have only pre-packaged individual treats for our celebration.   (Please send enough for the whole class 20 in total).   Below are the people who are responsible for our Halloween celebration.  PLEASE SEND IN BY WEDNESDAY, OCT. 27TH

1) Akua - Chips     2) Janine - Fruit Snacks/Gummies      3) Matthew - Treats (Chocolate or candy) 

4)  Kayden - Juice Boxes 5) Landon N - Rice Krispy Squares (store purchased only)/Bear Paws/Packaged Cookies etc

Costumes can be worn to school on Friday, Oct. 29th but should be easy to take off and on as they still will be going outside at recess and lunch and I wouldn't want their costumes to get ruined.        A letter about costumes was sent out from our district on the parent portal please read that carefully as we want Halloween to be a fun and safe event.  

Art Cards went home on Wednesday.  Please return the art card, even if you do not wish to order as we will add these to our Memory Books.  Important:  If you do wish to place an order, please write it on the back of the art and include payment or if ordering online, please write your Order Reference Code in the pink box at the bottom of the art card.  If there is nothing written on the back of the art card, I will assume you are not placing and order and your child will cut/glue the art onto construction paper.  All art cards should be returned on/before November 5th.  We will not be able to accept late orders as the school will be sending them in right away to ensure delivery in time for Christmas.

We invited a Coast Salish artist to visit us via Zoom on Wednesday. We learned and drew the 4 basic shapes and then listened to the artist book and drew our own crows using these shapes.  The event was a big success!  Next week we will be joining in for a virtual Halloween yoga (for kids) and a virtual pumpkin patch visit.  We are trying to bring the outside in being we are not able to participate in these events in person at this time.   Your children seem to be really enjoying these opportunities.  

Could you please send in headphones or earbuds.  They are needed for Reader's Workshop and we'll also soon be using the iPads for a math station as well.  Thanks to those who sent them in this past week.

Reader's Workshop books with a post-it on the front should have come home this week or by next Monday.  Please practice these with your child but return the books daily as they will also be using them in class.  Thanks for your support with this as they will be presenting these books to the class. 

Scholastic went home on Tuesday.  Thanks to Kenzie and her family for preparing these flyers. 

Hygiene word search will be coming home soon as an additional home work project.  Hand washing is so important that we thought it was a good activity to reinforce this and also bring up some important discussions for you at home.
