This Week In First Grade:

We hope that everyone had a great time exploring and hearing about our pumpkin explorations this Friday! The kids had a great time and learned a lot. This last Friday was the last day of the nine weeks grading period so be expecting to see report cards soon.

Please remember to turn in Field Trip money if you have not already. The cost is seven dollars and we need to have lunch choices (cafeteria or bringing lunch) into the cafteria this week.

As temperatures change, please remember jackets for the kiddoes that are labeled with their names. This will help keep children warm and healthy. Please even if it is not too cold in the morning, send one just in case. Sometimes temperatures chanhe fast. Remember to send students with extra changes of clothes in case of accidents.

With Halloween this week, please remember snacks that are healthy. Students need to make sure they are not having highs and lows when they are consuming snacks :)
Thanks to all the parents that contributed to our harvest day and continue to contribute to our classes and student learning - we appreciate you!!!!
