Hello Parents,
I hope you all enjoyed your fall break. The weather was lovely. I was pleased by how well the kids came back to school ready to learn and to get back to work. (Have I mentioned how fantastic I think our students are??) CLASSICAL CHARACTER PARADE - Thank you for those who have returned your classical character forms. If you have not returned these or contacted me but would still like to have your child dress up for our Classical Character Parade on the 31st, please return the form or let me know via email. BOOK REPORTS - I was noticing today that there is a discrepancy between the due date set by our first grade team and the due date listed on the Classical Character informational flyer. Our due date for October book reports was set for this FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26TH. However, since the date on the flyer is set for the 29th, I WILL ACCEPT OCTOBER BOOK REPORTS ON MONDAY, OCTOBER 29TH. (This is different than what I told our students today.) Please help your child to complete and return his/her HISTORICAL FICTION book report by Monday. If you are still uncertain about book ideas, you can check at your local city library (or the school library), or you can do a google search on historical fiction books for 1st grade. Here are a few good lists that I found: https://www.cantonpl.org/content/suggested-historical-fiction-first-grade https://www.rainbowresource.com/prodlist?subject=History%2FGeography/14&category=I+Can+Read+Historical+Fiction/4437 CURRICULUM - This is our final week of the “Similar Stories / Different Lands” unit. We are beginning our sight words this week during our voyager time. I am excited about the work we are going to be doing together. I will let you know more about that next week. HALLOWEEN PARTY - Our room parents, Heather Andersen and Kristina Gregory will be sending emails to let you know how you can help with our class party on the 31st. Thank you in advance for all of your support. HOME AND SCHOOL NEWSLETTER - I am also attaching a copy of the “Home and School” newsletter from our Assistant Director, Brooke Austin. I hope that you will take a minute to read it. Thank you, parents, for all of your great work!
