Brrr....

It's getting cold outside! Please remember to dress for the weather. It looks like winter will be here early!

Everyone brought home a Red Ribbon Week schedule for next week. There is one addition: the 8th grade class is selling $1 root beer floats next Tuesday afternoon. Next week is filled with lots of fun activities and fun dress days - be sure to see our "October Happenings" for more information. As a reminder, next Friday (Nov. 1st) is an early release day!

We're having fun with shapes in math - we're learning what "symmetry" and "congruent" mean, and we're learning how to divide squares and circles into equal shapes. This is our introduction into fractions and they're doing a great job! Next week we'll continue learning about fractions and we also start learning about pennies and nickels. On Friday (Nov. 1st) we'll have a test which covers the last two weeks. We'll do a practice test next Thursday so we know what to expect.

Enjoy your Thursday!
