Awesome Read and Feed Turn Out for 5B!

Wow, 5B, be sure to thank your families for making the special trip into the classroom on Friday to help celebrate the Book-It program.  It was so great to see so many moms, dads, grandmas aunts, family friends, etc.  The excitement in both the eyes of the students and the adults was fantastic!  I loved seeing the students "teach" the adults about their life in 5th grade.  So thanks again for making the special trip. I'm happy to see families again this week at conferences:)

I hope your weekends were enjoyable, 5B.  I remember people talking about the haunted house, the movie in town, "dates" to go on, visits to Pinters, hunting plans, the bowling event, state cross country meets, etc.  It sounds like a  lot of fun was planned.

Your upcoming week will be another goofy one with early out days for conferences, a Halloween dance and NO SCHOOL on FRIDAY!!!  So, Monday will be the only "normal" day this week...if we call our class "normal" at all???  HEHHEEEHEHEEE...

Heres' a quick look at the week.  Please have your parents check this out so they have an idea for the week, ok?
Monday:  Normal (as far as I know, anyway)  May get our Halloween story back from Canada
Tuesday:  1-hour early out and conferences
Wednesday:  Fall Fest dance and Halloween costume in afternoon, bring costumes, no make-up, reread note to be sure you are following the guidelines (and of course, trick or treating for many of you that night:)
Thursday:  1-hour early out and conferences
Friday:  WHATEVER YOU WANT:)  No School:)

Remember how the weather has changed, so dress warmly for the mornings you're outside and regular recess times, too:)

I'll know you checked the blog if you draw a picture of your FAVORITE piece of candy to get at Halloween time.  We'll see what the class favorites are!  We know Jerry Seinfeld loved the "name brand" kind...not the orange marshmallow shaped like a peanut:)
