 Hello Families!

It was so fun to see so many of you at the cultural fair last week! What a special event...I look forward to it every year.๐Ÿ’–

Don't forget to sign up for conferences if you haven't already:)

A huge thank you to the Jacobson family for supplying our November playdough- it got a lot of use last week!

  • This coming week:
    • Sunday- Scholastic Book Orders are due  https://orders.scholastic.com/H939Y (let me know if you want me to set them aside for holiday gifts). I will order around 6:00pm

    • Thursday- picture retake 
    • Friday- Shaker Lane Spirit Day: wear red/white and blue
    • Friday- End of Wit and Wisdom Module one celebration! We will have a popcorn party and use all 5 of our senses. I will use my hot air popcorn popper to make the popcorn so the children can hear and see it pop. I will melt a little butter to put on top. Please let me know if you prefer your child to not have popcorn on Friday.
