Last night the kids had some unusual homework. They were to make a sign for our upcoming bake sale to raise money for all our fun field trips that 4th grade goes on. The bake sale will be on Wednesday, October 31st (Halloween) at the early out dismissal. We will have one on primary side and one on intermediate side. We will just divide the goodies up so we have some of each on both sides. We will need your help baking and bringing in the goods. We would like to keep it with the Halloween theme so spider cupcakes, ghost cookies, whatever. Be creative...kids love it. If you are a pinterester just go to pinterest.com and put in the word halloween snacks and walla there are a million. Or you can google Halloween snacks pinterest and it works too. You don't have to be a pinterest member to see others ideas. There are some good ones. Too fun. Store bought stuff is fine too for those non-bakers. Please do NOT bring in the treats until the morning of the 31st. We have no room to store them for more than a day. Just wanted to give you plenty of time to plan ahead. Healthy snacks are also welcome!!! Can anyone make a broomstick out of a carrot??? All goods will be 50 cents and all money will go to the 4th grade fund. Thanks for doing this!!! If you are planning to help out by making a batch of something please write the word Halloween in the planner for $50! Thanks.
Homework tonight is a math review sheet on place value. I am still noticing some kids getting value and place value confused. Constant review helps. Please feel free to check it over and discuss those that are missed. It is a HUGE help to get one on one help to fix these small confusion issues, and I don't always have a chance to pull aside during the day.
The end of the quarter is coming up in a little over two weeks. Please check tomorrow's grade report and look for missing assignments that need to be done over the weekend.
Another Happy Birthday to Brayden. I finally got his picture! Robby also robbed the bank of $500 this morning for his emailed picture of yet another Fallen Rock sign. Man, they are everywhere in Billings!!
PTA fundraiser envelopes came home today. They are trying something new this year. Instead of selling a product like cookie dough or trinkets they are just collecting donations. So, it is a non-fundraiser fundraiser. All the information you need is on the envelope itself or inside on the information sheet. We love our PTA at Bitterroot and they help out a lot in the 4th grade classrooms. Please consider making a donation. Envelopes are due back by Oct. 17th. Thanks.
Have a wonderful evening!
