First of all, it was a pleasure to meet and talk with so many of your last night at our first night of Parent Teacher Conferences! I really enjoy those discussions and coming to understand your child that much more!
Now, on to the yucky. As many of you have experienced, we have had quite a few sicknesses that seem to be traveling around our classroom. Running noises, hacking cough, mucus, fatigue... you name it!
Here are some ways you can help support from home:
1. If your child is experiences these symptoms, please visit your health care provider as soon as possible. If something is contagious or needs antibiotics, we want to catch it early!
2. Keep your child home to rest when needed.
3. Talk with your child about habits for staying healthy:
* Washing hands with soap
* Covering your mouth with your elbow when coughing or sneezing
* Eating healthy
* Exercise
We discuss these things in the classroom, but reinforcement from home will help!

We had to change the time of our field trip on Wednesday, October 31st. We will now be going from 9:00 am to 11:30 am. If you are chaperoning and now cannot attend, please let me know as soon as possible. It is critical that your child is on-time to school that day, as we will be loading the bus right away.
If you have not returned the permission slip for your child, please return that and the $6.50 admission cost BY THIS FRIDAY. Thank you!
And of course, GO TIGERS!
