Mrs. Freeman's Room
Winter is almost here!
November is here and the snow is coming! I am excited to start some snow sports with the students. We will be skiing, skating and snowshoeing this year. This month we will celebrate student learning on November 13. There will be no school that day. Each student will come to school with their parent(s) at a specific time, to show them all the cool things they have been working on. I will be sending home a sheet for you to fill out and let us know when the best time would be for you.
The third week of November is Pirate week. We will be learning how to read maps and find treasure. On the Thursday November 19th is pirate day. We will dress up as pirates and see if x really marks the spot for treasure. Please come dressed as pirates!
On November 26th we will have a Birthday Bash. We will celebrate everyone's birthday on that day. Please feel free to dress up for our class birthday party!
Library is moved to Monday. We want to welcome Julia, who will be working in the library.

Salmon In The Classroom
The Kindergarten class will be taking care of 50 Chinook salmon eggs this year. We have to keep their tank at 4 degrees. Once they hatch, we will observe them grow and feed them. When they are ready in spring we will release them into a creek. We are very excited!!!
