Information for Weeks of 10/25-11/15

• This is a bit early as children are asking about Halloween.  We will celebrate Halloween on Wednesday, 10/31.  The children are encouraged but not required to wear costumes to school.  Please have your child come to school dressed in his/her costume because there is no time to change before the parade.  Your child may bring a set of clothes should he/she like to change after the parade or during the day.  Provide a bag for your child to keep all of his/her costume parts together.  
• Thank you to Angie Healy and Angie Boudreault for organizing the Halloween celebration.  There was an email sent asking for help and/or donations.  Thank you in advance to all of the families who are helping to make the party a success.  The party is scheduled immediately after the parade.
• RTI has finally begun.  The children are doing a great job at getting to the correct RTI classroom on time.  The learning begins promptly at 8:00.
• Continue to help your child master money.  The more that your child handles money in "real life" circumstances, the sooner he/she will grasp the concept.  Counting "real" change is far more fun than working with plastic coins.  
• Make-up photo day is scheduled for Monday, 10/29.
• We still have about six Flat Stanleys hanging out in Room 1.  If your child's Stanley has not flown away, please provide him/her with an address and a stamped envelope.  We are starting to receive postcards!
• That is all for now.  Your children are still wonderful!  Thank you.
