We had a wonderful visit from Mr. Churchman and Laddie today!

Watershed

This afternoon we had Stephanie from Champlain Base and Harbor come in and show us how people can pollute the lake.  She then demonstrated ways people can keep pollution from getting into the lake.  Please take the time to talk with your child about Stephanie's visit.  Students truly enjoyed her display!

Fire Safety

This morning we had a visit from the Colchester Fire Department reminding us that October is fire safety month.  They explained that an adult should check the fire alarms at home, what to do in case of a fire (stop, drop, cover our face and roll) and then they stressed the importance of having a meeting place outside of our houses.  It was a great visit and we are lucky to have the fire department so close to our school! 

Harvest/Picnic

On Tuesday, 2nd graders harvested the potato plants they planted last spring and donated them to the Colchester Food Shelf.  We are great community members and love giving back.
As part of our school-wide PBIS celebration we had an October picnic lunch outside. 
It was a busy day!

Conference Sign Up

Here is the link for parents to use to sign up for conferences in November.  Please remember that each child is allowed one time slot, so please plan accordingly!  I look forward to talking about all of the wonderful successes that your child has had so far this year!

Community Applesauce

Our room smelled so yummy on Friday.  Our classroom applesauce was liked by some but not by all.  At least students gave it a try!

Open House

Open House was a huge success!  Thank you all for coming out!  I am sorry if I missed getting your family picture, it was very busy at times.
