THIS WEEK’S
TOP STORIES
Storybook Character Day
On Tuesday, October 31st, First Graders will be celebrating literature with our very own Storybook Character Day!
TASK:
1. Pick a Character: Students and their family members select a character from a book they have read.
2. Fill out the Character/Problem/Solution flipbook: Students complete book at home with family members.
3. Costume: Decide how you can dress up to resemble a character from your book. Costumes need not be elaborate. Try to use materials from around your home.
4. Snack Bag: Feel free to send a special snack packed in students’ decorated brown bag (this will come home Monday the 30th)
Please have students bring in their flip book and literature book by Friday, October 27th.
This week the police will be monitoring around Lowell School before school. Many parents and some staff members have been seen ignoring the Do Not Enter Signs. The police have asked me to warn parents and staff in advance. We all know the phrase…”Drive like your child lives here!”
