Dear Familes,
I hope that you are enjoying your day and your weekend. I had a couple of quick up dates.
We will be exploring apples in both Science and Math this week. Students will be using their 5 senses and participating in other apple related activities. Each child will need to bring 3 apples ( a red, yellow, and green) to school on Wednesday, October 4th. We will be using the apples for a taste testing and graphing activity that day.
Children visited our school library this past Thursday. Please make sure to read your child’s book with them nightly. They will need to bring back their book back to school no later than Thursday, October 5th in order to check out a new book.
There will be not be school for both Young 5’s and Kindergarten students on Friday, October 6th. Teachers will be participating in a Professional Development that day.
Our schoolwide picture day will be on Wednesday, October 11th. If you choose to purchase a picture package, you will need to send in the order form and money either on or before, Pitcture Day. You also have the option to order online. The steps to order online are outlined on the Picture Day order form. You will not be able to see the pictures before you place your order. We will be having a picture re-take day if you would like your child’s picture re-done. I will post information about that day at a later date.
All Whitmore students will have a half-day on Friday, October 13th. Dismissal will be at 11:30.
Please continue to read with your child nightly and practice uppercase and lowercase letters starting with the letters in their names.
Please let me know of you have any questions. I hope you and your family enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Amy Croft
