It's Pumpkin Time!

Are you ready to pick pumpkins? We are!! Monday, we will be heading to McBee to McCleod Farms for our first field trip. We are SO EXCITED!!! We will be loading the buses around 8:30 or a little after so that we may leave by 9:00 at the latest. It is about a 45 minute drive so we want to make sure we get there on time! If you have signed up to be a chaperone, please remember that you will follow the bus or meet us there. Remember, we will be going on a hayride so please dress your child accordingly (hay is itchy)! You may want them to wear jeans so the hay doesn't bother them. (We will put your child's field trip shirts on here over their clothes.) Each child will get to bring home their own pumpkin that they have picked out. We have told them that they have to be able to carry it because Mrs. Young and Mrs. Lalumondier won't be able to carry 20 pumpkins!!  

Next week is also College & Career Awareness Week. Please see the special activities each day below. 

Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Friday! Here we are again after another unexpected break. I hope everyone faired well through the storm! Fingers crossed that we will have no more days off due to weather issues!! 

In math, we are learning how to count the "math way". Ask your child to show you how to count the "math way". Also, we have been working on the letters A and M and their letter sounds. We have learned a song for each letter and have practiced letter sounds by singing The Letters on the Bus. Ask your child to sing it for you! 

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!






*Please wash your child's blanket & send it back to school on Monday. 
*Send in your family and pet photos.
