We had a boo-tiful time at our Halloween Party and Halloween Parade. Thank you to all the volunteers who helped make it possible including our Party Planners/Room Moms, Mrs. Ciocan and Mrs. Bowers. The class had so much fun!  We also had a wonderful time on our Downers Grove field trip! I appreciate all of the chaperones help as well!        


The Upcoming Week at School:
Social Science: We have completed our Downers Grove unit and will start Science! We are going to be using a wonderful program titled, Mystery Science this year, which addresses all of the common core science standards. We will complete lesson 1 on flower pollination!
