Miss Lindsey here blogging and filling in for Miss Peggy. Since Halloween falls on a Tuesday next week we decided 2 days of Halloween was just not enough. SOOO this week we will be doing all Halloween themed centers in our classroom.  Our housekeeping area will be changed into a costume shop where the kids can buy and try on costumes.  The math this week is about graphing and we will be graphing ghoulish and ghostly items.  The letter this week are Q and R we will paint with Q-tips and glue ribbon on our R’s.  This week is such a great week.  The kids are always so excited for Halloween!!

Here are the details for the Halloween parade for next week:

On Halloween we have a building wide parade at 9:30. Parents can arrive at 8:45 and go directly to the gym where Principal Ms. Trish will provide glazed donuts for all.  You can have your child already dressed in their costume (parents make sure to either put the costume over their clothes or pack clothes to change into….we will change them after the parade)  At 9:15 the students then report to their classrooms and parents can find a good spot to watch the parade.  If weather permits we then walk out the back doors of the gym and parade around the building.  Parents, Grandparents etc. then stand outside along the sidewalks and take pictures as the kids parade around the school.  Anyone is welcome to watch.  PM students and family are welcome to join the donuts and parade as well.  We will walk to together AM and PM and you can retrieve your child at the end of the parade.

Classroom treats are welcome to hand out to each child but we will not be eating the treats at school.  They will go home in the child’s backpack.  If you decide to send treats in just make sure there is enough for each child (AM 9 and PM 9) and we will help the students disburse them to their friends.
