Week of October 29

Parents,

We have a busy week ahead.

I will be out of the classroom Tuesday and Wednesday, October 30 and 31.  We usually have a Fall Party on October 31, but plans will change a little since we will  have a substitute teacher that day. 

We will have a special Fall snack time instead of a party.  The snack has already been provided, so please do not send any food, drinks, or candy for the class on October 31.  If you would like to send individual treat bags for each student, you may.  We have 20 students. 

Students may wear their Halloween costume that day.  Just remember they will wear it all day, so be sure it is appropriate for the playground.  We do not change clothes or shoes at school. Toy weapons and face paint are not allowed at Pyron.

This week we will begin working on the book "The Josefina Story Quilt".  The vocabulary words written in the planner on Monday, Oct. 29 are for two weeks.  We will test over these words Thursday, November 8. 

We also are working on nocturnal animals and their adaptations, predators and their prey, spellings for the "k" sound, and will finish Chapter 2 in our Math book.  Our test will be on Friday, Nov. 2.

Nate Walters and his mom, Kerri Holt purchased a book from the Book Fair for our classroom.  They selected "The Werewolf at Home Plate" by Bill Doyle.  This is the first book from the new series Scream Team.  It's an exciting story about some little monsters who don't play baseball well enough to be on a league team and how they solve their problem. 
THANK YOU, NATE AND MS. HOLT!   All students will enjoy reading this book.

Have a wonderful week!

Mrs. Bradford
