This week's latest....
  • We are in the process of rescheduling our Bartlett Arboretum field trip.  I will notify you as soon as we book new dates.  Please be on the lookout for new permission slips to be signed and returned.

  • Dreambox instruction page was sent home yesterday along with your child's password. Included on the page are directions on how to download to an Ipad as well.  The kids had a chance to try it out in the computer lab yesterday and they all seemed to love it!! Please allow them to play these math games 10-20 minutes per day.
  • Mark your calendars for next week's Halloween celebration on Friday, October 31st.  Our class party will start at 1:15pm. The Storybook Character Parade begins at 2pm.  All parents welcome! While the kids are taking turns getting dressed into costume, they will enjoy making crafty holiday bats and haunted houses.  See you all on Boo-day :0

Picture day is among us! Order forms were sent home this week. Pictures will be taken on Thursday, October 16th (in the afternoon). Yes, unfortunately this is the same day as our field trip to the Bartlett Arboretum. Students will be learning about seeds.  And they may be doing some outdoor walking.

Please keep in mind that they should wear sneakers for the trip. If your child is getting dressed up, you may want to send their dress shoes in their backpack so they can put them on just for pictures.

  • The "No eating in Classroom Rules" begin this week.  We will continue to have snack outdoors as weather permits,  so please send 1 snack item for your child to have a quick snack on our way to specials. 

  • If the weather doesn't allow us to go outside, then the snack can be eaten during lunch for an extra boost of energy.

  • Our Springdale Sprint is this Friday. Please remember to have your child wear sneakers and are prepared for some healthy exercise on the blacktop to raise money for Springdale School!
