First, I want to formally welcome our new Teaching
Assistant, Elizabeth Nolan! I had Elizabeth’s son in my classroom
several years ago, and she has been a substitute teacher in our school for many
years. She also led the beautification project in our courtyard . Please
welcome her to Room 6!
You have received a nice note of introduction
from our student teacher, Carli Sherman, and we have created a link on our web
page to her introduction. See if you can find it!
Carli and I are working on slide shows
for you, from our field trip to the Blue Hill Weather Observatory and Harvest
Day. Thanks again for all of the parents who made these such a success!
Here are a few pictures in the meantime:
Thanks also to those who
worked and purchased books from the book fair last week. It was
fantastic! We received several books for the classroom, from parents and using
our PTO money.
This week we are having a
little harvest-Halloween activity for the kids on Wednesday. More thanks
go out to Melissa Ricci and Judy Chan for organizing this, and for everyone who
offered to donate items! Wow it really takes a village!
Also this week we will be deciding
on our Student Council members for this year. Each year 2 students from
each classroom get to “represent” our class in a before-school monthly meeting,
led this year by Gretchen Knox and Maryanne O’Loughlin. Parents must
agree to bring their child to school by 8am on that day, once per month. If you agree to do so, please write a note
stating this and send it in with your child by this Wednesday, October 31.
Thank you!
Finally, I have so enjoyed
meeting with each of you for your child conference. I will be following
through on all of the action items we discussed during the next couple of
months, and look forward to meeting with you again in the spring. If you have
any questions in the meantime please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Deborah Niles, Elizabeth
Nolan and Carli Sherman
