Hip-hip-hooray for Mr. Vanderlinden!  Room 4 welcomed our new teacher.

Today's learning: fruit & veggies with mood sharing, seasonal skit rehearsal, recess, music, creative writing (with Mrs. Traquair), lunch and a fun afternoon with Mr. Vanderlinden.

Ask your child:
- about the emotion they wrote about
- about their character - what kind of voice, props and costume will they wear?
- how they are modeling respect for younger students
- about Mr. Vanderlinden's height

Reminders:
- no school on Friday
- Halloween costume parade and skit performances on Thursday afternoon
- *last chance to bring all props and costumes* tomorrow
- Life Touch picture orders

Homework:
- has your child finished their "How am I peeling" paragraph?  (example and criteria attached below)  Ask them to share it with you.
- nightly reading, math facts and spelling practice (quiz on Thursday).
