Happy Monday!
Everyone seemed a little sleepy this morning- must be the cooler weather. We are off to the Pumpkin patch this Friday. If you have a truck and would like to come drive 50 pumpkins home please write me a note in the agenda! For Friday: Dress WARM- layers can always be removed. Wear warm shoes, bring mittens and a hat. We will be eating lunch at the pumpkin patch so bring a bag lunch that can easily be eaten outside. We will be bringing a pumpkin home just in time for Halloween night!

Spelling test will be on Thursday this week!
We will be focusing on descriptive writing this week with a spooky theme.
Math: We will be focusing on dividing 2 by 2 and 3 by 2 digit numbers.
TRU Students are coming this week to play games and teach us about healthy eating (just in time for Halloween!!)

Have a wonderful week!
Ms. Alpaugh

HALLOWEEN
By Gregory K.

Be prepared
To be scared.
Ghosts and ghouls are haunting.

Mummies moan.
Specters groan.
You know it’s you they’re wanting.

Wolfmen howl.
Goblins yowl.
A shadow hides a grave.

Streetlights flicker
Heart beats quicker.
It’s so hard being brave.

Flashing lightning,
Far too frightening.
You know you want to flee.

But don’t run.
Just have fun.
And bring candy home for me.
