Dear Families, It was great seeing so many of you at the Ice Cream Social/Book Fair. Thanks to all of you that were able to come. It is always a very fun evening. Also, we had our second fire drill last week and again, the Penguins did great! I was so proud of all of them. It is hard to believe that we only have two more weeks left in our first trimester. The grading period ends on November 11th and report cards will be issued on November 18th. I will be sending home several rubrics in the next couple of weeks to share what I am assessing on. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you. Our class is very excited for Halloween tomorrow. Fingers crossed that the weather will cooperate and our Halloween parade will be able to be outdoors. If it is outdoors, families are welcome to come and watch. It will begin at 9:30 tomorrow morning. Unfortunately, if the weather does not cooperate, our parade will have to be indoors, which means families will not be able to attend. Our classroom parties will then be from 10:00-10:45. It will be a fun day! Picture Re-takes will be on Monday, November 7th. If you are interested in having your child's picture retaken or if your child was absent, please email me and let me know. You can also send in the original pictures with your child to school, if you would like a picture re-take. Thank you! Willow Grove ~ Window to the World - Calling All Families!On the evening of December 8th from 6:00-7:30 PM, we’ll be having a fun family event, showcasing the many cultures represented in our school community. We are excited to learn from and celebrate each other! We cannot do this without your support and are looking for parents who would like to share artifacts and traditions from around the country and globe with our students and families. Parents who are interested can share about holidays, traditions, clothing, games/toys, geographical location and landmarks, music, art, food, etc. Children or families may do a short performance (dance, music, etc.). Things families choose to showcase are not limited to places outside of our own country. Families can share about areas right here in the USA and what makes their family unique to help us all learn about one another. We are so excited about this event! We hope that you’ll consider sharing with our school community. We would all love to learn from you! If you would be interested in participating, please CLICK HERE BY NOVEMBER 11th to complete this brief survey. THANK YOU! Note: You can partner up with others! You don’t have to do your booth alone. We will organize groups based on our volunteers and topics and individuals can feel free to work together, if you choose! CLICK HERE to see a video from a previous cultural fair! This will give you a great idea of what the event is all about! Mark your calendars for the evening of December 8th. This will be fun for the whole family! Have a great week! Take care! Sincerely, Linda Dolan
