Good Bye October, Hello November!


In light of elections, check out the Presidents of the Primary classroom! If you were president, what would YOU do??



******************************************************************************

At this point, everybody should have received their Thanksgiving Feast invitations. The kids worked hard with Miss Melissa cutting, gluing and punching to get these invitations looking just right. The long awaited opening of the Leaf Press holding their chosen leaves - that came aaaaall the way from Boston - was an exciting event, and you now have the final product. And we have Natalie to thank for the beautiful cursive you see in all of your invitations. We are looking forward to having you all at the school with us for our delicious feast!! Be on the lookout for your family's ingredient that we'll be assigning you to bring for the kid's to prepare themselves. Who's getting excited for turkey, potatoes, stuffing and.... PIES!? **raises hand**
:) Hope to see everyone there!


 *********************************************************************************
The kids are doing so well with their individual projects/lessons, as well as with our group curriculum that we are teaching... below you can see:

 Now, my apologies for a very delayed HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! to Timothy :) (Miss Melissa getting stuck in Boston may have thrown the blogging off a bit - so sorry!) .. Timmy turned 4, had a super awesome and creative poster to share, and we thank him tremendously for The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle as his gift to the class!! One of our favorites...

*********************************************************************************
Fire Safety day also feels like it was forever ago... but here are some pictures from that day. I'm sure you've heard endless amounts about Escape plans, etc, but the day was a blast. I definitely didn't envy the firefighter wearing roughly 50 pounds of equipment on that very hot day!

********************************************************************************
Lastly, we want to thank you all for being so attentive and receptive to our feedback at Parent Teacher Conferences... the days went by very smoothly and it was great to meet with you all.

Please send your RSVP's back for the Thanksgiving Feast by next Monday, November 12th.

Also, School Portraits next Wednesday, November 14th!! This is the first year that the school is doing this, and our very own Miss Melissa will be taking the pictures, so rest assured that the kids will feel comfortable, and she should definitely be able to get that genuine smile out of them! :) Please ensure that you have your slip back by Wednesday, at the latest.

Hope everybody is having a great week!!
