October 10, 2014

Dear Parents,

                        This week we talked about seasons and fall.  We talked about many things that go along with fall – the weather, how things look outside, how leaves change colors, and how animals begin to prepare for winter.  We walked outside and looked around for signs of fall and collected some fall leaves.  Then we discussed how the leaves don’t change color in the fall they actually turn back to their original color because the leaf stops making chlorophyll.  Then we talked about properties of leaves and looked at some of the different leaves.  We learned some new words like migration and hibernation with animals.  In math, we worked on sorting leaves, learned the words wide and narrow, and worked with patterns.  We have had a busy week.  We had some community helpers visit us today.  The kids got to see the police, fire, and ambulance workers.

            Each month we will celebrate a different character award.  These will follow our school values.  At each 9 weeks awards assembly for the traits we have been over, the students will get an award from the school.  We will do 1 trait each month.  September’s trait was respect and for October we will have communication.  At the end of the month, I will give our winner a little certificate and recognize them for the student of the month.  Our first award goes to Hung for our value respect for the month of September.  Congratulations to Hung.

Reminders

• Keep sending in those box tops and other labels. 
• Don’t forget to send in your 3 different kinds of apples on Monday.  There is a sheet that was sent home about it this week.
• I would like each student to send in a bag of Halloween candy.  It can be any kind just be sure it’s items that are individually wrapped you can send it in anytime next week or the week of Halloween. 
• Don’t forget if you want to order a Happy Meal for our Halloween celebration you can send the $3.50 in as soon as you want.
• I have several that have not turned in money for the Scholastic magazines that I ordered at the beginning of the year and the $10 or $10 gift card to Walgreens for the photo developing.  All that money is due by Monday October 13^th.  Please let me know if you need to know if you paid or not.  I do have a list.
• You may have noticed that the Handwriting letters for homework do not match the ones that are mentioned on the newsletter for the next week.  This is because I teach them in class that week about those letters, so then the next week they should know how to properly write them.  So the letters they ae doing on Monday’s for homework they have been taught in class how to write.  I just wanted to make sure there wasn’t any confusion about that.

Dates:

Monday October 13^th: Return books for Book-In-A-Bag
