Wild Wednesday

Halloween is coming!

Here are some reminders about our upcoming party and parade:

On Friday, October 31, the elementary classrooms will have Halloween parties from 1:55-2:50.  We encourage students to wear costumes for the event.  Parade starts around 1:45.  Parents that are helping with the party are requested to be in K02 at 1:30 to help get costumes on.

Costumes must be appropriate for school:

• must be simple to get into without help
• no blood
• nothing too scary
• no play weapons
• no face make-up
• no colored hair spray

Reminder of Party Attendance by Visitors/Parent Volunteers: Parents that are coming to help in K02, please be in the room at 1:30 to help with costumes. Per school policy, no younger siblings may attend our classroom parties. Please make this a special time for your school-aged child. Alternative educational activities will be provided for any students who do not celebrate Halloween in the Library during this same time.  We appreciate all parents who are planning to help as room parents or other assistance for the parties.  Thank you for making other arrangements for younger siblings during this time.

• One other party expectation--Due to Confidentiality and FERPA requirements, all pictures or videos created during the party by parent/visitors must include ONLY your student. No other students can be a part of these images.  Thank you for your cooperation.

Conferences
Last day for conferences is Thursday night.  

Time Change

Reminder that the clocks are set back an hour on Saturday.

In reading we are spending a little time on review of the alphabet.  

We are also continuing our look at schema, or what we know.  We looked at a bunch of tools and learned that others know tools we do not and we know some that others don't.

In math we worked on a worksheet with Halloween patterns.
