Tisch's Tidbits
Moon Journal
We have been studying the phases of the moon. Starting last Friday night, the kids have been keeping track of the phase of the moon using their moon observation journal. This will be due next Friday.
Oreo Cookies
I would like to use Oreo cookies as part of a science lesson tomorrow. If your child may not have them, please let me know today. Thanks!
Movie Night
Don't forget to sign up for this Friday's movie night! You will pay at the door. See Mrs. Raycroft's newsletter for the link.
Prepositions
We are studying our prepositions by memorizing a jingle. I sent home an informational sheet and the dates of the quizzes last Friday. House points will be awarded for knowing all 49 AND spelling them correctly as an extra challenge. So far, the kids have done great!
Honor Flight-Collection of Coins
On Monday, November 12th Union Elementary will be celebrating Veterans Day. Your child will learn about what a veteran is and why we celebrate this holiday. Also, please dress in red, white, and blue to celebrate with our country! We are asking for quarter donations to go towards the Honor Flight and helping Veterans get to see the memorial in Washington D.C.! This coin collection will occur the week of November 5-9. Please show you school spirit and dress in red, white, and blue for our convocation on November 12th! Thank you for your support and Happy Veterans Day.
Veterans Day
- The Union Elementary School Program will be held on Monday, November 12, 2018. The convocation will begin at 9:15 AM. Guests will be invited to arrive between 9:00-9:10 AM. Immediately following the convocation, there will be a reception for Veterans/ guests, student council representatives, and their students in the library. This will conclude by 10:25.

If you would like to attend, you will need to pre-register using the SafeVisitor pre-registration link and, if you are a Veteran, will need to fill out additional information so that you can be properly recognized.
