A1 Turtles Update
Week 13 -Nov.8th
This Week...
We explored Acrostic poems and posted a sample on Seesaw! Be sure to check out their amazing work that gets posted on Seesaw. There will be an opportunity for you to come and see your kiddos in their music class. The date for their music informance will be Dec. 4th at 9:20 am to 9:50 am in the cafeteria. Please note the early release time continues for this week of school. School will end at 1:15 each day. Students are working hard on Fact Families and subtraction in math. You can support their efforts in math by practicing math facts at home.
Winter Holidays
Grandparents Day
Guadalupe Grandparents day is coming, it is on Friday, November 17th. ALL Grandparents may come to school at 10:30AM on this day to spend an hour in our classroom with their grandchildren. The Home and School Club will host a light coffee from 10:30-10:45 and then Grandparents may come down to our classroom at 10:45 when the bell rings. We will hear a Thanksgiving story, we will play some Thanksgiving games, we will have a craft and we will show our Grandparents our classroom. I must say, I really love this day and I love the way it sets off a fun week for the Thanksgiving break!
If Grandparents are unavailable or do not live close by, an Aunt, Uncle, neighbor, friend or parent is invited to attend with a child!
**This is a very special day and one that we spend a good deal of time preparing for. IF YOUR CHILD WILL NOT HAVE ANYONE PRESENT ON THIS DAY, please tell me ahead of time AND tell your child. This allows me to pair up your child with another child and their Grandparent. I hate to see tears flowing on this day, so advance notice of a solo child is greatly appreciated. Thank you!**
Walk-a-thon
We rocked the Walk!!!!
The kids did an amazing job walking the track and getting laps! I am so proud of how hard they worked!!!!
Our class typically does well in both fundraising and laps, so let's keep that tradition going and register your children at https://www.uburst.com/cgi-bin/uwalk/accounts/AX2L3X6Y4G4Z4O0L60/uwalk.pl and continue to collect pledges.
All money raised from the Walkathon goes to pay for our Recess 101 and Starting Arts classes for every student.
Donations Will Be Accepted Until Nov. 17th
There is information from Home and School Club in the Friday folder.
