Hi Families,

We’ve officially wrapped up our CKLA Unit 2 on Animal Classification, and I’m so proud of how much students have learned about the fascinating world of animals! This week, we’ll begin Unit 3: The Human Body, which is always such a perfect unit to start around this time of year. Students will explore how the different systems of our bodies work together to keep us alive and healthy — it’s always an engaging and fun topic! Grades are now officially posted for Quarter 1, and Quarter 2 has begun! It’s a fresh start, and I’m excited to see the growth they continue to make this quarter! 

Looking ahead, our Fall Party will take place on Friday, October 31st from 1:30–2:30 PM. Please note that only the volunteers who signed up are able to attend the classroom party. Following the party, our Fall Parade will take place from 2:30–3:15/3:20 PM, and families are welcome to attend! Depending on the weather, the parade will be held either outside on the field or inside the school. As a reminder - if you want to check your student out after the parade, you will come sign them out with me at my classroom door! 

Halloween Costume Guidelines for Students:
No weapons, blood, gore, or make-up. Costumes should be conservative in style. Masks (for the parade only) are permitted as long as they follow the guidelines. Students should bring their costumes to school to change into before the parade — they should not wear costumes to school. Time will be provided for students to change before the festivities. Inappropriate props such as blood, plastic swords, guns, knives, and any type of weapon are not allowed. Masks are not to be worn in classrooms and are permitted only during the parade.

It’s going to be a fun and festive week of learning and celebration!

With Love, 

Mrs. Rubert
