Week At A Glance

October 21-24, 2025

This week we are learning more letter sounds and will continue to blend and segment words. We are also learning about plants and the life cycle of pumpkins, turnips and other plants.

Next week is Halloween! If you haven't heard, Halloween is a big deal at our school. We will spend most of Thursday night transforming our school into a Halloween surprise for the students. Fox 13 news will be here Halloween that morning, if you want an early peek. We will have a costume parade that afternoon at 3:00. Watch for more information about the parade. After the bell rings at 3:30 we will clear the building of students and get ready for our family engagement activity. The doors will reopen at 3:45 and will be open until 5:00 for families to see the building and to trick or treat through the school for treats and a book. It's such a fun afternoon, let me know if you have any questions.

We will have a class party and will be trick or treating at the Legacy House (a retirement home in our community) on Halloween too. Students can wear their costumes to school that day. Please keep in mind that costumes should follow our safe schools policies. This means that masks can not be worn (but they can be brought to show our class) and that costumes should not include a weapon of any kind. If you have questions about costumes, please let me know.

Remember to keep reading! Our class won the most minutes for kindergarten reading, so thanks for reading and for sending calendars back! Our reading goal is to read to and with your student for 20 minutes a day. Thanks for reading the book in your child's folder each night. Read it and put it back and they will get to choose another one when they bring the first one back. Write the minutes down on the reading calendar and return them at the end of the month for a prize.

      If you have any questions you can send a note in your child’s folder, or call me at school.  Email is a great way to reach me too.  My email address is angela.eckhardt@nebo.edu THANK YOU!
