It's the end of September!

I can't believe it's the end of September already!  When we come back to school October will have started, and the countdown to parent teacher conferences, the zoo field trip, and Fall Break will be on!  We have a busy next couple of weeks!

Fall Book Fair Parent Night
The Creekside Fall Book Fair will be the week of October 9th.  Students can bring money to shop during class, or you can come to the parent night: Thursday, October 12th 3-7pm.  Many of you will already be here on this night for parent teacher conferences. :)

Storybook Night
Mark your calendars!  Creekside Storybook night is set for Thursday, October 26th 6-7:30.  This is a free event where families can come walk around to different rooms in the school and hear favorite children's stories from real characters (teachers have a blast dressing up as the story characters!)  Then stick around and your child can go trick or treating in the gym!  They can come dressed in their Halloween costume or street clothes.

In Folders Monday
I try not to send important things home on Fridays, which means LOTS of things will be coming home on Monday!
***Book It calendars for October (refer to earlier blog post for more info).
***Homework-new!  I updated the homework sheet--everyone in the class knew 8/9 or 9/9 sight words when I assessed today!  WOO HOO!  So, I put the 2nd 9 weeks words on the homework sheet so we can get a jump start on learning those.  Keep up the great work at home!  I also changed letter sounds to beginning sounds in words, counting to 100 by 1s (if your child can count to 100 skip this part) I added counting to 100 by 10s.
***Scholastic book order--remember no obligation to order, just if you want to add to your home library.
***Parent Teacher conference confirmation--please check the date and time, and let me know as soon as possible of any conflicts so we can reschedule.  I have a little wiggle room, especially later in the evening those two nights.  Please put this slip in a safe place so you won't forget to come see me!!
