Dear Parents,

Today in Friday folders you will find a permission slip for our first field trip. We will be going to see "Cinderella" at the Boulder Dinner Theater, as part of our unit on writing adapted fairy tales. Please return the permission slip and fee of $10 ($7 for the show and $3 to help with the bus cost) as soon as possible. This is a short trip so we will not need any parent volunteers for this one. Sorry. 

Our first math test will be next week, probably on Wednesday. Please make sure your child practices their multiplication/division facts for 0,1,2,3,4,5,9, and 10s. The test will cover word problems using these facts, as well as straight computation, multiplying using arrays, breaking up arrays into two smaller rectangles and solving for the larger rectangle, and using multiplication to find answers to division problems.

Finally, Jogathon collection envelopes are coming home today in Friday folders. The Jogathon is next Friday, September 30 from 9:45-10:20. This is one of our biggest fundraisers so please help your child call friends and family for donations/pledges. Also, if anyone has names of businesses to turn in, we will send letters written by our students to those businesses to get donations. So far, only two families has returned their address labels for this. 

Have a great weekend.
