Field Trip - MONDAY!!!
A final reminder note is coming home today with some final information. Please take a look in your child's take-home folder. Please remember to watch the weather and pack accordingly (it's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it!). Remember to be at school Monday morning by 8:15 behind the gym. We leave at 8:30. We will be back at school on Tuesday at 3:00, and students are excused at that time.

Next Week
Next week we will be at the Environmental Station on Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday will be back at school where we'll be tying up some loose ends, and Thursday and Friday are off due to Thanksgiving. What a week!

Pictures
During the field trip I will take pictures and post them on the website for you to see what we are doing as it happens! I may even try a video! The website is located at http://loudestclass.blogspot.com.

Each picture will result in another email to you, however, and I want to apologize in advance for the inbox clutter. Feel free to delete them and see all of the pictures on the website. Also, there will be some clutter and gibbrish on the website at first. I will clean all that up when we return, but the pictures should be visible.

Conferences
Thank you to everyone for taking the time to visit with me this week. Every one of you should be proud of the work these kids are doing. Keep encouraging them. Keep helping them. And keep them focused on always doing their best.

The Upcoming Week
It's pretty much planned already. There will be no spelling or memory, but we will be working in our Reading Journals! Students should have their silent reading book and their journal for the field trip! There will be time to read and work.
