We will be having our Halloween Parade again this year at MES! Please send your child's costume to school with him/her. Students will put their costumes on right before the parade. We don't have time to do hair, make-up, or anything extra. Also, please remember that no weapons, blood, or scary costumes are allowed. At 2:40, we'll begin the parade of costumes, and a short party will follow back in our classroom. Parents are welcome to attend!

Money, Money, Money
Our money unit has been a little more challenging than I anticipated this year. I need your help at home. Please spend some time counting spare change with your child. I will continue to bring practice activities in as I can, but the bulk of our time to spend on money is nearly over.
If you allow your child to play online games, you might try www.abcya.com/counting_money.htm. Thanks!
