Scottish Corners students will have Harvest Parties on Thursday, October 29th. The students will participate in a parade and then have a party in the classroom. Students should wear regular clothes to school and can bring their costumes in a bag. Shortly before the parade the students will be able to put on their costumes. In most cases, students should be able to put their costume on over their normal clothes. If this is impossible, however, students will be allowed to change in the restroom. AM Class Details: The morning class will get to participate in a kindergarten costume parade through the lower and upper floors of Scottish Corners. The parade will start around 10:45am. Upon return to our classroom, the students will enjoy a Harvest Party until 11:45am. Please contact the AM Harvest Party coordinator, Amy Licata, if you would like to help with the party. PM Class Details: The afternoon class will participate in a whole school costume parade to Brookdale Muirfield Retirement Home. Weather permitting, the parade will start around 2:15pm. Upon return to our classroom, the students will enjoy a Harvest Party until 3:30pm. Please contact the PM room parent coordinator, Marcie Gagnon, if you would like to help with the party. ____________________________________ Author Visit – Steve Harpster Steve Harpster visited SCE this week and was a huge hit with the kindergartners! Steve’s passion is to encourage kids to imagine and create through drawing. The students brought clipboards, paper, and pencils to the assembly and had fun drawing. Each drawing started with a number or a letter and turned into something awesome. Check him out on www.harptoons.com and ask your child to tell you about drawing with Steve Harpster!
