NEWS FOR PARENTS!

Monday - Cat in the Hat Day ~~~Wear a hat

Tuesday- I am Not Going to Get Up Day~~~Wear Pajamas

***Tonight is Family Reading Night starting at 6 p.m. DOOR PRIZES!

Wednesday- Wacky Wednesday Day~~~Wear wacky clothes!

Thursday- Green Eggs and Ham Day~~~Wear GREEN

 CES Seuss Character/Book Costume Ideas—

(in case you need one…)

 As the Seuss days have unfolded, some simple costume ideas have come to mind for any who need one. We can't wait to see what characters will descend upon the CES parade this Friday (8:15 A.M.), but if you need something different and quick, what about...

*Mr. Brown--dressed head to toe in brown, from Mr. Brown Can Moo, Can You?, paint/marker mustache optional...

*Cat in the Hat--dressed only in black/white...maybe a red paper bowtie and a few magic marker or facepaint whiskers...striped hat...

*From I Can Lick 30 Tigers Today---any kind of "tough", wrestling/camouflage attire

*From Great Day for Up/I Am Not Going to Get Up Today--pajamas/robe, repeat of Tuesday. Who doesn't love two days of wearing PJ's to school?

*Walking in "fancy clothes", pulling a wagon full of stuffed animals behind...If I Ran the Zoo/Circus

*Ten Apples Up on Top--brown pants/green or red shirt...construction paper hat with ten apples reaching high into the sky...

*The 500 Hats of Bartholemew Cubbins--safety-pin hats all over your child's clothes

*Oh the Places You'll Go--child wrapped in road maps or something similar

*Oh the Things You Can Think--anything, the crazier the better, goes on this one. What is the most "nutball" way you could dress/paint your face/walk? What are the oddest things you could carry?

TIP: Pin a sign with the name of your book or character to your little one's back. That way, watchers can try to guess the costume/character and check to see if they're right as the parade progresses. The most important thing: just have FUN and make memories together!

NEWS FOR PARENTS!

  

Thank you to all parents who have sent donations!  We appreciate your help SO much!  Also, we want you to know how much we enjoyed our 100th Day Special Treat!  Students went from bowl to bowl, counting out 10 items with a spoon and putting them into a zipbag.  We had M&M's, pretzels, Cheez Its, Teddy Grahams, Cheerios, peanuts, marshmallows... It was delicious :)

**Yearbook sales were scheduled to begin on January 30th.  More information coming soon.

Next PTO meeting will be on Tuesday, Feb. 5th at 6:00.  Pizza and drinks are available at 5:15.  Return bottom portion of the bright green letter you received to reserve your meal!  Red pods will perform :)

**Students began counting money last week.  Parents, please make it a nightly practice to put change on the table:  Quarters, dimes, nickels, pennies up to $1.00.  Have your child put them in order from greatest to least, and "add on."  I am so proud of those who have demonstrated how they practice at home!
