Practice Sheet #5 is in folders today. Please click this link to watch a video to help you with the new boxes on the practice sheet this week: Practice Sheet #5 Video The video was made for parents to watch so you know what to expect when working with your child on the practice sheet. Your child does not have to watch the video. 

I need your help getting 100% completion of the Impact Aid survey for our class. If you have not already done so, please take a moment to complete the electronic Impact Aid survey in PowerSchool Parent Portal. (Dr. Nichols sent an email last week with directions.) Please complete this form by October 31. I appreciate you taking the time to complete the survey. Mrs. Hester had it finished in less than 3 minutes for both of her children. Please contact the front office if you have any questions. 

Reminder - Columbia's FCA is collecting coins for hurricane victims. Send in a bag of coins or a few dollars to go in the jar. See post from last Monday for the specifics. Thank you! 

Helpful information for NEXT week:

Next Monday is our annual CES Trail of Treats. If you plan to come, please send one bag of candy per child that will be trick-or-treating. See the flyer in last Friday's post for more information.

October 28 - November 1 is Red Ribbon week. There are dress up days each day during Red Ribbon week. They were listed on last Friday's post and a flyer will come home this week with all of the information too. 

The Book Fair will be open next week. If you wish to come and shop with your child, the Book Fair will be open during the Trail of Treats. Our class is scheduled to visit the book fair on Tuesday, October 29 from 8:15-8:45. If you would like your child to purchase books, you can send money in a labeled envelope inside your child’s daily folder next Tuesday.
