Halloween Costume Parade and Breakfast
Our annual Halloween Costume Parade and Breakfast will be on Monday. Students are invited to wear their costumes to school. We will have a morning meeting and then we will watch the costume parade proceed through our classroom. We will join the parade at the end of the line and parade through other classrooms as well. When return to our classroom, we will have a small breakfast and an activity. These are being planned by Ms. Paulette. You are welcome to join us or to find a great spot in the halls to watch the parade go by. After the festivities, we will take off our costumes and put them in our backpacks to bring home. Please keep any toy weapons that are parts of a costume at home. These can be used for neighborhood trick-or-treating but should not be brought to school. I will be in costume, too, and would love to see some of you come in costume as well. It should be a fun morning.

More New Books for our Classroom Library
During our last Scholastic Book ordering session, we earned some free books. Ms. Kerry recently used our free book certificates and ordered some great new books for our classroom library. Check out the great titles in the photo below. Thanks, Ms. Kerry for handling this. We will really enjoy these books. I haven't shared these books with the crew yet because I have been out for the last two days. That will be one of the first things do tomorrow when I return. We have some avid readers and I need to get these books into their hands.

Additions to our Classroom Library
Just before Fall Break, Dillen and his brother and sister cleaned off their bookshelves. They found many books that they thought our crew would like. Dillen brought them in to add to our library. We were all very interested in the new books. Thanks for sharing, Dillen.

Classroom Library
So what do the students do when they arrive at school at 8:30? They have several jobs that they do to start their day. They bring their homework folder and water bottle into the classroom, they put their homework in the homework bin, they make their lunch choice, they go to the bathroom if they need to and they fill their water bottle if it is empty. After that, they can visit with their friends or more likely they can be found in our classroom library reading a good book. They love this time to show each other all of the good books that they have found in the classroom library during center time. Just look at how well they share the space and the books in the picture below. They love to read!
