First, we had two exciting field trips. The first one was to the apple orchard and The Farm. Thankfully, after some uncooperative weather, we did get to the fire station!
Also, we had Open House where we got to have some great food, see our rooms, and maybe even win some prizes. It was great seeing all the parents and grandparents and everyone else the children wanted to show their room to. The next two days we had Parent/Teacher conferences. Thank you to all the parents that helped make the days go by so smoothly!
Finally, we had our Halloween Social. Everyone had awesome costumes! We had a great time decorating cookies. Thanks to all the parents who donated supplies so we could have a great day. We also were able to go downstairs and watch a movie with popcorn.
We are looking forward to a lot of fun things happening in November. We will be finishing up our math chapter on 5 groups in the numbers 6-10 and will be starting our chapter on teen numbers next.
Our first quarter ended yesterday and report cards go home next week Thursday. It's hard to believe we are through our first quarter already!
With the colder temperatures, winter gym will be starting soon. Please make sure that your child has an extra pair of gym shoes at school to wear at the gym, if they do not already.
I don't know about you, but I sure am looking forward to Thanksgiving! I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and enjoy all the time spent with family and friends. We really have a lot to be thankful for!
