We had a great walk to the museum today and we learned a lot about the first families in Fallon. The museum staff was so helpful! We sure appreciated them spending so much time with us. The next step is for each student to choose a person from Fallon’s history to research, which we will do in class on Tuesday. We will go back to the museum on Wednesday morning, Oct. 16. This is a change from the email that went out last week. We are going before lunch this time so that we have more time there. We will leave right after recess at 9:30 and be back before lunch. We will still have math and writing that day, just in the afternoon.
Because we are approaching the end of the quarter, we had auctions in the classroom today. The students filled out applications for jobs, and each gets paid for being a student. They save their money and we learn first hand about supply and demand by auctioning off a few food items and some other fun things. We will have a few more auctions this week.
With the end of the quarter, we are also at the end of our Drama class. Our class will be performing for a large audience at the Book Fair family night on Monday, Oct. 21 at 7:00. The family night time is from 6-8. Please allow time for your child to get in costume before the 7:00 performance. Mrs. Miller will give more instructions on exactly when and where to meet on that night. But please plan to attend and enjoy the play and the book fair.
Also, with the walk to the museum and auctions this afternoon, I totally forgot to pass out reading logs. Please have your child read tonight, even without the paper to fill out and sign. They will have their reading log for tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience. Have a great week!
