As we head into a busy season, please take a look at the reminders for our class below:
Awards Ceremony- Our first quarter awards ceremony will be this Tuesday, October 14 at 8:30. You will be notified if your child will be receiving an award, but all are welcome to attend, and your child would love to see you! The students will recite "My Shadow" as well as sing the songs they've been learning in music class. Perfect attendance, virtue, and academic awards will be distributed. Assembly attire is required on this day. We hope to see you there!
Art project request- For our November Meet the Masters art lesson, our art teachers, Mrs. Wong and Mrs. Mata, are asking students to bring in pictures of their pets to use for inspiration for the art lesson. If you have a photo of your pet, please put your child's name on the back of it, and put it in the front pocket of your child's BEE binder. I will collect these and save them for the art project. If your child does not have a pet, we will provide a picture for them.
Change of date for next field trip- We had originally booked our field trip to the Western Science Center on a different date, but the facility had to change our trip. The new field trip date will be February 27- mark your calendars!
Bate's Nut Farm- We will be riding the bus to the Bate's Nut Farm on Thursday, October 30. Field trip packets were due today. If you still need to make your field trip donation, you can do so HERE. Thank you to the parents who offered to donate water and/or a snack for our trip. You can see that sign up HERE. Feel free to send in those items at any time.
No School- There will be no school for students on Friday, October 31. Enjoy the long weekend!
Fall Festival- Save the date for our annual Fall Festival on November 7. This is a family event from 5-8 pm and it is so much fun! Kindergarten will be hosting a Cake Walk booth and all proceeds from the booth go back to our grade level. More details are coming soon- you won't want to miss it!
Meet the Masters- Our next Meet the Masters art project will be November 15. If you are cleared and would like to help our class with the project, please sign up HERE.
Thanksgiving Treat- The kindergarten classes will be learning about the first Thanksgiving and we will be having a Thanksgiving snack and dessert to celebrate the end of the unit. If you'd like to donate an item, please sign up HERE.
Coats/Jackets- As the mornings start to cool down, many students are wearing sweaters and jackets to school. But as the temperatures heat up mid day, those sweaters get removed, and often misplaced. Please be sure to put your child's name on all of their sweaters and jackets. The likelihood of it making it back home is much higher if their name is on it.
Future Field Trips- We will have two more field trips after the Bate's Nut Farm. Both will be local, and we will ask parents to drop off and pick up students from the trips- students will not go to school on these days. Here are the remaining trips for the year:
Western Science Center- February 27 (change from original date)
Pennypickles Museum- April 24
