Mrs. Crofts’ Classroom Newsletter
It’s a new quarter again
in week number ten!
Thank you for bringing your children to open the
musical on Friday evening. They did such a cute
job! 
If your child was blessed with a load of candy
yesterday, I ask that you reserve those treats as
after-meal desserts and avoid sending them for
snack time. Thanks!
Please be sure to check your child’s folder each
day and go over any school work with him/her.
Some children have folders that get so full we
hardly have room to put the new papers in.
Thanks for your help with this. 
It’s almost time for our used book fair that
will take place November 15-19. But we
need your help to stock it. If you have
books of any reading level that you would like to
donate please bring them in to our classroom.
There is a donation box near my desk. Just for
fun, the class that brings in the most books will win
the prize of throwing water balloons at our principal
and male teachers!
On Sunday, November 20 from 2-4 PM we will
be hosting a kindergarten open house. Please
refer anyone you know who may be interested in
learning more about our kindergarten or Jr. K
program for this school year or next.
Don’t forget you will need to adjust your
clocks for daylight savings on Saturday
night. Hooray! An extra hour of sleep!

Zoo-Phonics News
We’ll spend the three short days of this week
finishing with Honey horse since we used some
time last week for individual assessments to
prepare for report cards.
How’s your child doing with learning his left from
right? We’re practicing here at school but home
reinforcement helps too!
Other Classroom News
We had fun last week blowing our horns for the
battle at Jericho. This week we get to blow them
again with Gideon. See if your child can tell you
what two strange “weapons” Gideon and his men
took into battle. The battle truly does belong to
the Lord! We will also be covering a whole book of
the Bible as we learn about a woman with a
servant’s heart, named Ruth.
In math we will continue to talk about our families,
introduce sets and work with triangles.
We welcome Spencer for his first day at our
school! We’re excited to have you join our class! 
Thank you to Michael’s family for those
wonderful Halloween goody bags! Everyone
enjoyed them!
