Dear Parents,

         We have another field trip scheduled on Tuesday, November 18 when we walk to the Performing Arts Center to see “National Geographic Live! The Lens of Adventure” which is a free trip! We will leave the school at about 9:45 and return at about 12:15. Chaperones please meet in Room 177 by 9:30.

         The students have had fun building and rebuilding our assortment of canned pumpkin and cranberry sauce for our Thanksgiving Food Drive. Please continue to send in cans until Friday, November 21. I think the students are planning to build some kind of jail cell for me, so if you don’t hear from me next week please check in Room 177 and see if I need help getting out. Thanks.

Our class is going to have a Thanksgiving potluck on Tuesday, November 25 from 12:10-1:30 with Mr. Harjehausen’s class. Students will be making placemats, cooking, and preparing for our guests. In addition to the items we make, students may bring an item to share. So we don’t have 24 Jell-O molds, we will have first graders bring fruit or a salad or a Jell-O mold, second graders a dessert, and third graders a main dish item. Parents are welcome to join us for the feast. This should be a fun event to get to know our neighbors and celebrate our blessings.

The students have had a great week working on the fundamental needs of humans, spelling, math operations and facts, adverbs, writing, contractions, reading, geometry, penmanship, and more.

         If you have any questions or concerns, please e-mail me at moyer_craig@asdk12.org or call or write me a note.

Sincerely,

Craig Moyer
