Harvest Party Reminder

This Thursday, October 26th, we will be having our Harvest Party, instead of a Halloween Party.  The children need to come to class dressed as something related to farming or autumn (or at least not scary).  Will the following children please bring a special treat for our party:  Addison Cobb and Saylor Lybrook .  We divide the class up to have some kids bringing snacks to each party.  There are 12 people in the class.

 

                                                            Thank you,

 

                                                                     Rohnda and Rena
