TGIF!

Hi All!
Happy Weekend! I just wanted to say a special THANK YOU to all the families who joined our class this week for Grandparents' Day! Whether you were a parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, other relative or friend, the students really enjoyed your visit.
If your child still wants to buy something from the Book Fair, Tuesday will be his/her last opportunity.
Next Friday, September 14th, will be our Fall Fair. PLEASE COME JOIN US! I am still in need of parent volunteers to help out at our class game of Face Painting. Thanks so much to the two parents who signed up so far!
If you are interested in being a Room Parent, please let me know!
Census papers were sent home last week. Please check over those and return as soon as possible. Make any corrections if needed.
Look for midterms to come home next Thursday. We are halfway through the first grading period, and this midterm will be to let you know if there are any concerns at this point.

Have a great weekend!

Tuesday (but feels like Monday)

I hope you enjoyed your LONG weekend and are ready for a SHORT (but busy) week!! Tomorrow is Grandparents' Day for our class! Grandparents (and parents or other family members) are invited to join us for lunch tomorrow at 12:20. We hope you can make it!
Another exciting thing happening this week is the Book Fair! If you are coming for lunch, you are welcome to take your child to the library for the Book Fair. Otherwise, students not accompanied by an adult, are asked to bring money for this on their designated Library days (which is today and Friday of this week). Students will have a "last chance" opportunity to shop again if they bring money next Tuesday before the Book Fair is taken down.
A lot of information was sent home today in yellow Monday folders (even though it's actually Tuesday--sorry for confusion!). One matter of high importance is our Fall Fair next Friday night, September 14th. Our class game is Face Painting, and we really need volunteers to work 30-minute shifts. PLEASE let me know if you can help out! A sheet came home today where you can choose your preferred time. Also, please return the census form that you received after making any necessary corrections if needed.
Lunch for tomorrow is:
 Grilled Cheese
Lasagna w/garlic bread
Chicken Stix
Have a great night!

Arts and Humanities

Three of our classes (Duncan, Fredericks, Fryman) had Arts and Humanities this past week. Mrs. Duncan's class learned about drama and performed a play for us. Mrs. Fredericks' class learned about the color wheel, primary, and secondary colors. Some of our artwork is on display in the Wing C hallway by the gym. Ms. Fryman's class learned about dance. Her class performed a traditional dance called the "Virginia Reel" for us. I've included a couple of pictures from that dance. They did a great job and the kids loved it! I think everyone learned something while having fun. Thanks to Mr. Fields, Mrs. Harris, and Mr. Price for a job well done!
