Fall Festival Week!

We had so much fun making our Skeletons last week.  A great big thank you to the Evan's mom, Sofia's mom, Landon's mom, and Eric's mom for helping us! Make sure you check out our Skeleton Parade video in the previous post!

Also a huge thank-you to Eric's mom for sending in many, many plates for our project!

 

Teacher Treat Day was such a HUGE treat! I can't thank all of you moms enough that came and helped with lunch that day.  I didn't even get to see all of you because some of you met the class in the lunchroom, so I wanted to make sure you knew how much I appreciate you! THANK YOU!!

 

We will have Nancy's Tuesday due to the Holiday on Monday.

 

The big excitement this week is the Fall Festival this Thursday.  If you ordered your wristbands ahead of time, your child will receive them this week.  Make sure you are checking your child's binder.  The wristbands should be in your child's pencil pouch that is in their binder.  I will send those home the day we receive them from the PTA.  If you didn't purchase wristbands ahead of time, you may still purchase them at the gate.  This is such a fun night to celebrate Fall with your own family and your Blount family! Don't worry, your child will not have homework that evening!

 

The first nine weeks ended this past Friday.  Report Cards will come home this Thursday.  We start a brand new nine weeks Tuesday! Your child will have one report card for you to keep, and one to return to school in the envelope it will come home in.  Please return those Friday.

 

Please don't forget to check your child's binder nightly for any information you may need.  Also remember to sign your child's reading log nightly.  There is a new Reading Log in your child's binder for the 2nd nine weeks.  This Reading Log counts as a daily grade in Reading.  I took them up last Friday.  Don't worry if the Friday spot wasn't signed for your child, that didn't count against them.
