We all enjoyed fun Halloween happenings today. The sixth graders celebrated with all their 6th friends at a grade level party, while my fifth graders had a cool crepe making (and eating) party here in class. Thanks so much to all my parents who helped out. The kids had a blast!

Hello,

After spending two days with my 6th graders at science camp, I'm back in class and enjoying teaching time with my 5th graders. We had a fun day of science, both indoors and out. Be sure to ask your child for details!
We talked about having a pizza lunch on Friday which, of course, everyone is very excited about. $5 per student will cover pizza, bread sticks, chicken wings, veggies and dip, and drinks.
Please let me know if this works for you, and I'll check in with your children tomorrow to confirm.

Thanks!
Mrs. Koue
