Hi Families,                                               

This week before our Thanksgiving break will be busy! On Wednesday, we have been invited to attend the school book fair. We'll get to pick out a book for free, and an opportunity to buy a book if we bring the funds. Here's the blurb from the school newsletter:

"Books will be paperback selections priced $5.99 and lower supplied by local bookstore, Bath Book Shop.  If you send a check in with your child, please make the check out to Bath Book Shop.  The Bath Elementary PTA and the Literacy Support Fund provide funds for every student to choose a free book at the Book Fair.  Parents are invited to shop the Book Fair on Thursday evening, November 15th, from 6:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m..  Local author Wendy Ulmer will be reading from her book A Isn't For Fox beginning at 6:45 p.m."

Also on Wednesday, we'll be reading and assembling ingredients for Stone Soup, to be offered at snack time on Thursday. Seasonal creative art projects are on this week's schedule, as well.

Please remember to sign up for parent conferences (November 20th) if you have not already done so. Timing is flexible, so speak with Mrs. Bridgman if you need a time that is not on the list. No pre-k classes  the week of November 20, 21, and 22, just the conferences on Tuesday, the 20th.

Closing with a song we'll be singing this week (not every item required to be totally embraced ...)

"I love the turkey,
I love the stuffin',
I love the gravy,
I love corn muffins,
I love my family,
We're all together,
I'm glad Thanksgiving time is here."

Mrs. Bridgman and Mrs. Peavey
