WEEK IN A PEEK!
October 9, 2009
Dear Parents,
THIS WEEK WE: made scarecrows, wrote about scarecrows and was busy getting ready to go to the pumpkin patch.
The weather was rainy on Thursday but all in all the kids had a good time. Thanks to all the parents that went with us. I hope you are dry by now.
Good News: Because of the rain Campbell’s Maze Daze has issued each of the kids a Free Admission to go back with their family! It is enclosed. Yeah!
NEXT WEEK WE WILL: weigh, measure, and otherwise experiment with our pumpkins. We plan to make several graphic organizers to record the information that we learn.
We had a pumpkin for everyone but I noticed after school that a few went out the door. If your child took his home, would you send it back? I’ll send it home after our experiments.
PICTURE RETAKES: Next Tuesday, Oct. 13th.
