THE YEAR OF THE BAT


The Milford Nature Center recommends viewing of this website. There are many resources that your child would be interested in exploring. Several children expressed an interest in building a bat house. The instructions are posted on this site:

When you have time take a look at the Bat Conservation International website and explore the world’s largest bat colony in a cave near San Antonio, Texas.

CLASS HALLOWEEN PARTY


Monday, October 31 the children may bring their costumes to school in a sack or bag. In the afternoon we will dress in our costumes and sing at the nursing home at 2:00. After we return to the room our class party will begin. I have games planned and parents are helping with refreshments. Please keep costumes simple, no makeup or weapons. Parents helping with the party are:
Jaylen's mom - cupcakes
Connor's mom - drinks
Mrs. Seirer - treats, cups, plates and napkins
Thank you for all your help! Have a "Boo"-tiful Halloween!

OCTOBER BOOK IT


Please remind your child to turn in the October Book It Reading calendars this week. Those that participated this month will be in a drawing for prizes awarded on Friday. I would like to highly encourage our first graders to participate in the November Reading Book It Club. Anytime we can put books into the hands of our children good things will happen. I wish for my students the love of reading! What an adventure it can be.....snuggle up with a good book and your child!

THANK YOU


A BIG thank you to all the parents who took time out of your busy schedules to attend parent teacher conferences. I enjoyed sharing all about your child's progress! The success your child demonstrates is largely due to you parents. You take time each day to be involved! Thank you again for sending your treasures to me!
