Fall Break! Need I Say More????

   
    Here we are, already at Fall Break.  This first 9 weeks has been a whirl wind.  Don't forget, when we come back from Fall Break, we begin Parent/Teacher Conferences on Tuesday, October 9th in the Library.  I hope to see you all there. If you haven't signed up yet, please don't forget to give me a call by next Monday afternoon.

     We have a Unit 2 math assessment today. Bummer....  :(  On the up side, we are having  a sight word race with Ms. Smith's homeroom today.  Wish us luck!  They have been practicing for a victory.  They have been learning "We Are the Champions."  Their version goes something like this, "We are the champions.... of the WORDS"!!!  Cute, right? Children knowing all of their sight words correctly will also get their faces painted. :)

    We will also be having a birthday blow out (sort of) for Mrs. Goddard.  ;)   Mrs. Goddard is turning old over fall break, so I am bringing in cupcakes today for my birthday. Yummy!  After a long day of assessing, assessing, assessing, the kids will need a break.

    Our first field trip is coming up on Monday, October 22nd to see The True Story of the Three Little Pigs at the Carson Center.  Our plans for the trip have changed slightly. The first showing was booked, so we will be attending the 11:00 showing.  We cannot push lunch any later, so we will have to go to Chuck E. Cheese BEFORE the play.  This also means we have less time to play at Chuck E. Cheese.   :(   We are disappointed, but everything will work out I'm sure.

      Fall parties will be coming up before you know it.  Our room mother should be contacting you all soon.  The kiddos are getting excited!  If anyone has any games that we might be able to play during party time, please be sure to share. The more structure, the smoother the party goes.

      Please remind your kiddo to continue reading and practicing sight words this fall break!  :)   Have a great, restful vacation!
