Halloween Fun & Some Additional Tidbits

                                Halloween Fun!


The children had a wonderful fun filled Halloween afternoon on Wednesday! The children kicked off the Halloween festivities with a parade around the Dryden neighborhood. Thank you to everyone for coming out! After the parade and a short recess, we headed back to our classroom for our Halloween party. The children enjoyed a fun Picasso themed Frankenstein craft and then rotating through 3 stations: Halloween Bingo, Mummy Bowling, and Mummy Wrapping. Thank you to everyone who sent in supplies for our party: crafts, goodie bags, decorations, and games. A very big thank you to our five party volunteers, Mrs. Pellum, Ms. Miceli, Mrs. Carlson, Mrs. Manglaris, and Mr. Tosch. A special thank you to Mrs. Pellum and Mrs. Humann for your incredible job planning and coordinating everything for our party. The children had a great time! I hope you enjoy all the photos in the link below!


Super Sentence Heroes
On Friday, the children turned into super sentence heroes! Each child created their own super sentence hero mask. Using their graphic organizers from earlier in the week, they chose one telling, asking, and exciting sentence to glue onto their mask. The children had a lot of fun with this activity and enjoyed sharing their sentences with one another. 


















Star Students
Thank you to our first three star students, Hailey, Mallory, and Jessica. We enjoyed learning more about each of you!

Royal Readers

A special thank you to Hailey’s Mom & brother, Mallory’s family friend, and Jessica's Mom who joined us over the last several weeks as our Royal Readers. The children loved listening to the stories that you all read. 





Happy Birthday

A very Happy Birthday to Bilal, James, Nate, Jessica, and Alex! We hope that you each enjoyed celebrating your special day!










A Few Reminders:
-As the weather continues to get colder, please be sure your child comes to school with appropriate outdoor gear. We do go outside for recess every day, unless it is raining or the wind chill is too cold. Please be sure that jackets, gloves, and hats are labeled with your child’s name. You would not believe how many black pairs of gloves there are! Labeling their gear allows me to match lost items with the correct children!

-The first grade musical is quickly approaching! It will be held on Wednesday, November 14th, with two performances, one at 2:45pm and an evening one at 7pm. Please be on the lookout for an email from Mr. Deptula with additional information.

-Progress Reports will come home on Friday, November 16.


-There is no school Monday, November 19th - Friday, November 23rd for the Thanksgiving holiday. School will resume on Monday, November 26th.
