Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving Week!  I hope you have a wonderful week with good food and time spent with loved ones!  Thanks for all you do at home to make this a successful first year of school for your child.  I am thankful for all of you! 

Did you see the beautiful rainbow last week!  Caiden found it!

#CSREADS--book 2!

I know many of you read our first #CSREADS book  Charlotte's Web.

I have heard many positive comments from parents and had many great conversations with students!  Our 2nd #CSREADS book is...Mr. Popper's Penguins by Richard & Florence Atwater!! 

Thanksgiving Feast 

As a reminder, here are the highlights:

• Please decide if your child is going to dress as a Pilgrim or an Indian tomorrow!  If you didn't send the costume in today, please send it in tomorrow morning!
• Each child is asked to bring in one piece of fruit for our fruit salad, please send those in tomorrow morning if you didn't today!
• If you signed up to donate something, and forgot today, please send in with your child tomorrow!  I think I have almost everything.  
• Thanks to everyone who signed up to help set up and serve the feast tomorrow!  You will be helping from 1:15-2:15.  Please come at 1pm, so you can put the biscuits in the oven and start setting up the cafeteria after 4th grade leaves lunch.
• Thanks to everyone who signed up to help make the food with the children tomorrow!  Please arrive at 11 (or you can come at 10:30 and eat lunch with us)!  I will have a paper with instructions on it.  You will have from 11-12 to help the class make the food.

Homework
Reminder--We will NOT have a homework sheet this week due to Thanksgiving break.  We will resume our normal homework nightly after Thanksgiving Break.

Thanksgiving Break

Don't forget that we are out of school on Wednesday, November 25th-Friday November 27th for Thanksgiving Break.  I will see you all back here on Monday, November 30th!

PTO Christmas Ornament Painting

The PTO would like to invite your family to a fun evening of painting special gifts for your loved ones or creating new ornamemts for your tree at home. Here are the details:

Where: Creekside Cafeteria 

When: Friday, December 4 from 6:00-8:30

(open house style so join us anytime during the event and leave when you are finished)           

 Cost: $10 per ornament painted - no limit

(PTO will receive a portion of sales)

 How it works: UPaint Pottery from Greenwood will be at Creekside with a wide variety of ornaments to paint. Choose and pay for as many as you'd like and then get busy painting. (Don't forget about all the special people in your life that love gifts made by your kids.) When you are finished, UPaint Pottery will take your creations back to their studio to glaze and fire in their kilns. Finished masterpieces will be returned to the school safely packaged and sent home with your child before Christmas break. 

Have a great week!  Happy Thanksgiving!!
