Week of October 30, 2017



It was great to see many of you at the Walk-A-Thon last Saturday!  It’s always a fun event for everyone.  :)

We have been studying and observing caterpillars for the past two weeks.  They changed into their chrysalis state and now many are butterflies.  Ask your child about their caterpillar/butterfly.

Tuesday is Halloween! I know your first grader can't wait to show off their costume!  It will certainly be a day filled with excitement!  On Tuesday, students should wear their costumes to school.  The Costume Parade starts at 8:30 on the Primary Playground.  Our class party will begin about 9:00 (following the parade).  Parents are welcome to stay for the party.  After recess, we will try to resume our school day, as best as we can.  :)  Please make sure your child can use the restroom on their own with their costume.  I’ll attach our principal’s message about Halloween Costumes as well. It looks like we still need some help with the stations/booths for our class party, even if it's just for part of the time, that would be helpful.  http://www.signupgenius.com/go/20f0f4ca8a72aaafb6-class/17005849 


Tuesday is also a Family Night, so there is no homework that night and to lighten the packet, we worked on our Book Report together and the first page of the math.

We will have an Art Vistas project on Thursday about 11:20 (Lesson is at 10:50).  It is always nice to have extra parent helpers for the project.  Please let Mrs. Timpano know if you can make it.

On Thursday our school will have Family Science Night!  It is a lot of fun!  Hope you can make it.  We still need some volunteers for the event.  If you or a friend would like to help out (It’s fun and easy!) Here is the sign up:  http://bit.ly/FamilyScience2017

We have been really good about returning our library books; let’s keep that up!


I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
