Halloween
Students may BRING their costumes to school on Friday. Students can change into their costumes after lunch. Remember props, wigs, masks, face paint/make-up are not allowed.
I will provide a sweet treat for our classroom party Friday afternoon. I am not asking students to bring in any food for this party because we have limited time Friday afternoon. We will celebrate simply this time!

Letter to Parents
This letter will be sent home on Tuesday.
Dear Parents,
I am fortunate enough to have several opportunities to attend some excellent professional development workshops/conferences in the next two weeks. I will be out of the classroom on a few occasions in the upcoming weeks. While it is not ideal to be out of the classroom, it is certainly worth it for workshops and conferences that will improve my teaching. Below is a schedule of the workshops and conferences.
Wednesday, October 22nd - MassCUE/M.A.S.S. Technology Conference - Gillette Stadium
Friday, October 24th - PARCC Workshop - Berkshire Community College
Tuesday, October 28th - Keys to Literacy - Reading Workshop - Marlborough, MA
While it is unusual for professional development opportunities to fall so close together, it is beneficial to be attending them early in the year. I am confident that my substitute will be able to continue our lessons with minimal disruptions. Even though I will be out of the classroom, I will still be available by e-mail.

Internet in CBRSD will be down until Wednesday
We will be without internet until Wednesday at all schools in the district. I will be able to check my e-mail from home but not while I am at school. If you need to get in touch with me right away, please call the school. Otherwise I will respond to your e-mail at night. I will continue to post homework from home at night. I have already uploaded this week's spelling words and all Social Studies vocabulary references for your convenience.
