Hello to November!! We prayed for all souls today in honor of All Souls Day.

*We had the Eastchester Fire Department visit us here at school today with an engine. We learned a lot. The firefighters gave us coloring books and hats. We thanked them for keeping us safe.*

Homework-Language arts- illustrating/writing a sentence; Handwriting- Ff practice

**A look ahead, Kindergarten will not be receiving a report card for the 1st quarter. We will be sending home a progress report, as well as the parent/teacher conferences coming up this month. The K's will receive the formal report card for the 2nd,3rd and 4th quarters.**

(Yankee Dress Down Day Tomorrow) Let's hope the Yankees clinch tonight!!

Wish me luck (not to be chosen!). I did not tell the children anything about the possibility of me NOT being here next week. Let's just see what happens first and for how long.* Thanks for your support and understanding!*
