We had a packed week! We investigated a “mystery soil” in science, planted peas and a ground cover in the QAE garden, and in class we planted seeds in sand, clay and humus to see which component would grow the healthiest plant. William traveled around the sun eight times during his birthday celebration and we had a farewell toast for Isabella on Friday. Starting the week with a field trip and ending it with mustaches created an energetic vibe around here!
On Nov. 1 we will wrap up our soils unit with a field trip to the Mercer Slough. Please let Ms. Heidi know if you are able to drive and chaperone this trip. Be sure to dress to get wet and muddy and to spend the day outside! A sack lunch will be needed for this trip.

I will link some games we learn at school under "Classroom Information" / "games and activities." Be sure to check out this resource throughout the year. Here's a link to an addition game we played this week called Cross-Out Singles .
We will be celebrating Halloween with costumes, a parade and a classroom party. Kids can change into costumes after lunch. Masks, weapons, and gore will need to be saved for after school hours.
Questions you “mustache” your child (don’t shave it for later!):

Questions you “mustache” your child (don’t shave it for later!):
- What is a near double?
- What numbers are multiples of 10?
- What was in your mystery soil and how did you know?
- What does "improvise" mean?
- Explain the difference between there, their and they’re
