Halloween is Almost Here

This week we will be doing many Halloween inspired activities, including a writing assignment where the kids will try to convince me of what I should dress up as for Halloween. I will choose the costume idea of the person who can persuade me best, and will reveal the results on Halloween. Stay tuned!

On October 31st we will be carving pumpkins. We will be needing volunteers for this activity, so please watch for further details this week. On Halloween, we will also be having our first class party of the year. There is a snack sign up sheet on the bulletin board outside of our classroom. If you are able to sign up to bring an item for one (or more) of our parties, it would be greatly appreciated. There is a pencil on the top of the bulletin board.

Giving Thanks

This week we will be talking about Thanksgiving and the things that we are thankful for. We will also be learning all about apples. Get ready for some apple math games, a tasty science experiment, and apple art!

Park Meadows will be taking part in the annual Feed the Bug campaign. All week we will be collecting non-perishable food items for the Lethbridge Food Bank. We will be collecting the donations in our classroom and on Friday we will join the rest of the school in order to "feed the bug."
