Dear Parents,
Week at a Glance
This week in religion we are learning about Martin Luther and the Reformation. For memory we are learning the ninth commandment which instructs us not to be jealous of what others have. In handwriting we are working on the letter “Tt” as well as writing question marks and exclamation points. In language we are working on alphabet order and compound words. Our math lessons this week are on ordering objects by length and measuring. In reading we are working on the consonant sounds “v”, “y”, and “z”. This week in science we are learning about plant life cycles and observing traits that plants have. During social studies we are learning about community helpers.

Jackets
The weather is beginning to get chilly as we near the end of October. Please make sure you send your child to school with a jacket every day. Morning recess is often colder than the maximum temperature for the day. Additionally your student may bring a uniform sweater or Hope sweatshirt to wear in the classroom if they are cold throughout the day. When the temperature is below 50 degrees students must have an extra layer to help them stay warm.
Library
Please make sure your child is returning their school library book back to school by Tuesday of each week.
Trunk-or-Treat
Hope will host a Trunk or Treat event on Friday, October 25th from 5:30-7:00 pm. There is no cost to this event.
Field Trip
First Grade has a field trip on Friday, November 1st. Your child must bring a sack lunch that day as school lunch will not be an option. All students must bring a booster seat in order to attend the field trip.
All Pro Dads

Raffle ticket money can be turned in from October 25th through November 1st . The week of the auction, each class will come down and put their tickets in the box for the item they like. Then, Mrs. Jankowski will draw for the winners.
Here are the items in the raffle:

- light up frisbee
- fairy finder
- Buzz Lightyear truck
- kids baking set (apron and such)

As in any raffle, purchase of a ticket does not guarantee winning and chances of winning are related to the number of entries.
