Friday was a great week. We had lots and lots of kids get gold beads for not losing their medals all week. I was so glad to see a majority of the children line up for these little beads.
We had Sherri Reffi in to visit from the library. She was outstanding, and we applaud her.
We had our weekly Knowledge Bee on Friday Morning, and Phoenix, Jack Ha, Jill and Makenzie won. They each got a star. Then Miss Jill got a special award for handwriting from Miss Amy.
We played a lot outside on Friday. In the PM, we painted trees.
Report cards went home on Friday. If you have any questions, please see the teacher who gave your child the grade you have questions about.
We have started our Holiday Season. We will be studying Autumn, holidays, and how we fit into the holidays. Children should be encouraged to talk about what their favorite holiday is, and how they celebrate that day at home.
Holidays are important for children. Children should be allowed to fully participate in these events. Remember, Halloween is for children, Thanksgiving is more for older family members, and Christmas is for everyone. This thinking allows children to see how we all benefit from holidays.
