Week of October 11th

Welcome to our short week! I have just a few reminders before the fall break:
This Wednesday, October 13th, is the last day of the first quarter. Report cards will be going home that day and it will be a half day with no lunch and no after school. Please make sure that you are here to pick up your student at 11:30!
We are going to the Pumpkin Patch on the 21st of October. If you would like to come on the trip with us you will need to get your fingerprints done in the office and make sure that they have a copy on file. Parents will also probably need to drive themselves due to limited space on the bus. The cost is $6 and your student will need to bring a sack lunch with them that day for our picnic at Reid Park afterwards.
Due to the short week this week we will not have any homework. Please practice with your student the letters that we have learned so far this year: L, H, G, O, T, P and A. Have your student tell you the sound that each letter makes and identify upper and lower case of each of the letters.
Also please count with your student every night. Our next goal to count to without skipping any numbers is 50. Please also review what the teen numbers look like, these are often a challenge for students.
No school Thursday and Friday, October 14th and 15th. Have a great fall break!
Also the 13th is the last day for the Cookie Dough sale. Please turn in any order forms by Wednesday.
Wednesday is also Friday dress. Your student may wear blue jeans and an LPA shirt. Please make sure that your student is wearing blue jeans and not another color of jeans.
I hope everyone has a great break and we will see you back at 8:30 on Monday, October 18th!
