This week
We have been so busy we are losing track of pictures we have posted. Please let me know if there are any specific activities you want captured. We had such a great time at our field trip. Our next trip we will plan is to do some holiday shopping. We will send home A wishlist and family members we can shop for. We are planning to shop at a thrift store or 5 below! We will take any ideas you have or Restaurants you recommend for lunch.
Field Trip
We will be going to Kroger, Dollar Tree and Red Olive next week. We will be leaving school at 9:00 a.m. if you would like to meet us at Kroger at Westborn Plaza.
Lunch at Red Olive will be at 10:30 a.m. The menu can be found here http://redoliverestaurant.com/breakfast-menu/ We will look at the menu on Monday to go over what students would like to order and find a total with tax and tip. We will be sending home an order form for parents to look over. If you think your student will not eat that please let us know as soon as possible. If students brand in $10 we will subtract it for you to see.
At Kroger we will be looking our Thanksgiving dinner items, have a scavenger hunt, return pop cans, and check out. If you have pop cans or bottles you would like to donate, send in for us!
Invitations for the dinner will be sent home tomorrow. This event will take place Tuesday, November 26th at 11:30am. Please rsvp.
At the Dollar Tree students will look for items such as plates, utensils, bowls, cups, deocations, and anything we miss for cooking.
We are really excited. Pictures will be posted for this trip as well.

Field Trip Details:
Students will locate and purchase groceries for our Thanksgiving party from Kroger. Students will make lunch orders from Red Olive using their own money and leave a tip. We will go over the menu (which is non-halal) next week (week of 11/11) and send home how much each student will need depending on their order. If you know what your child will eat from there please send in a note so we know what to pick from the menu.
