Hi Families,
Happy November! I hope everyone is feeling recovered from Halloween! We are getting into the busiest season of the year! I love this time of year with the students though!
Our next couple of weeks up to Thanksgiving Break will be getting back to our regular school routine and working through our CKLA Units! Right now, students are learning about the Human Body! Students will be bringing home their Human Body study guide on Monday. Please take some time to review it together at home—our Human Body Test will be on November 11th.
We’re also looking forward to Veterans Day, which is coming up soon. Our Veterans Day Assembly will take place from 9:00–9:40 a.m. as we honor and celebrate those who have served our country. The students always do such an amazing job performing at this assembly and it's so fun to see them up on the stage!
Looking ahead, middle of the year testing will begin after we return from Thanksgiving Break. More details will be shared as we get closer to that time.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
- Parents please connect to our Class Dojo- this is how to monitor your students behavior (positive and negative)
- Please send your student to school with a filled water bottle as well as a couple healthy snacks for the day. Reminder that we are a nut-free classroom.
- Colorado weather changes hourly so please pack your student appropriate attire for the day.
- We will have PE every Wednesday - and some Fridays. Please have your student wear tennis shoes for those days.
- Library day is Tuesday

Meet Mrs. Chambless
I am in my 18th year teaching, ninth year at AVA! LOVE it here! I have taught kindergarten, 2nd and 3rd. I am a Colorado native and love being with my family. My husband, Matt, works as a specialist for Douglas County School District... we are a teaching family! I have a freshman in college, Allikaye, who attends Colorado Christian University in Lakewood. I also have twins in seventh grade, Kai and Cambria. We are a busy family and like it that way! We are out playing sports, hiking, traveling, camping, and love being outdoors... Colorado living... especially living in the pines in Larkspur! I love coffee, reading, rainbow colors, smiley faces, and donuts! This is going to be a great year! Thank you for sharing your sweet children with me!!
