Happy Monday!

College Go Week!
College Go Week!  September 25-29, 2017.

Dress Up Days will be:
Monday: Hats off to College and Career Readiness Day (Hat Day)
Tuesday: Time to interview Tuesday (Dress for Success Day)
Wednesday: We want to be....Wednesday (Career Dress-up Day)
Thursday: College Gear Day (College Gear or Colors Day)
Friday: Celebrate being a Creekside Cougar (Creekside Spirit Wear Day)

Math Log ins
I've had some parents email asking about computer games for home.  At school during computer time we use the literacy and math websites: starfall.com and ABCya.com.  You can also utilize the Superkids online at home--there will be more to play later in the year!  Right now there are only the 4 wordless Superkids stories.  In your child's folder today you will find log in information and your child's password if you are interested in logging on and getting some math practice at home.  There are some great manipulatives and games!

Learn More Magazine
On Friday your child will bring home the magazine and the information to think about college.  We will review this during the week this week.  Some of the activity pages include: Kindergarten pages: 7, 10, 13, 14.  Please consider p.15--as it is a contest to get $529 in a savings account for college.

Operation Bundle Up
Creekside is participating in operation bundle up to help the United Way.  If you have any gently used coats that you are looking to part with, please send to the office between now and October 13th.  Thanks for your help!

Zoo Permission Slips
Permission slips and money for the zoo are due MONDAY.  I think I am missing about 6 kids.  I will send home more information about the trip on Thursday, October 12. We will paint dolphin t-shirts for the students to wear.  I will send those home on that Thursday too (or pass them out at conferences). Also, because of lack of bus space, parents will need to meet at Creekside and then drive to the zoo.  Carpooling with other parents is a great idea to save on parking--the zoo will still charge you to park that day ($6) even though it's a field trip. :(  If you are signed up to chaperone, please be in my classroom at 8am on Friday (we are leaving at 8:15).  Thanks!

Walk A Thon Money
Don't forget to send that Walk A Thon money in when you are finished collecting!  All money is due by next Wednesday!  Don't forget to write your child's name and    t-shirt size on their envelope.  


Parent Teacher Conferences
Thank you to everyone for signing up for a conference time slot on October 11th and 12th!  The teachers are meeting Thursday afternoon to schedule conferences to make sure those with siblings are close in time but not over lapping. :)  I will send a slip home next Monday with your day/time on it.  If something changes and your time won't work for you, please let me know as soon as possible so we can reschedule.  At conferences I will hand out report cards for the first 9 weeks!
