We are ready for our first quarter fieldtrip to METROMEDIA. We will be leaving school at 9:40 a.m. on Thursday, October 27th and coming back around 11:15 a.m. Please make sure the children come to school wearing the Discovery School shirt. We will require school transportation (2 buses), and we would like to know how many parents would be interested in joining us for the fieldtrip. Please contact your child’s teacher as soon as possible. The purpose of the fieldtrip is to promote the students’ interest in books by visiting this local bookstore. If you would like for your child to purchase a reading book at Metromedia, please send Lps.150.00. Since there is an Expresso Americano Coffee Shop in the store, your child might want to buy a treat, so make sure he or she has enough money to buy a snack.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YUDIA AND DIEGO!

Yudia and Diego are inviting all of the second grade students to their birthday party that will be held on Thursday, October 27th. The children will be having pizza, cake and drinks.

The U.N. DAY CELEBRATION will take place on the 28th of October. This will be a half-day for the students. Festivities will begin around 9:00 a.m. Buses will be ready for students to leave at 11:40 a.m. Have your child wear a hat or cap to school as we will be spending a great deal of time outside, weather permitting of course.

Book Character Day is scheduled for Monday October 31, 2011. At Discovery, we do not celebrate Halloween, instead we celebrate book characters. This is a great time for kids to wear a costume and celebrate literacy. The school requests to refrain from choosing grotesque characters (i.e. skeletons, bloody or dead people, etc.) The costumes must represent a character that originated from a book or story. In other words, dressing up as Cinderella is allowed since it was originally a story, but Power Rangers are not allowed since they are TV characters and later on became book characters. Remember, “Book before a movie.” Second graders will have the opportunity to present their characters to their Reading Buddies. The sheet to be filled out by each child/parent will be distributed this week. The Book Character Committee is planning on providing a delicious pizza, treats and beverages to the second graders. Therefore, they are kindly requesting a Lps.70.00 contribution for this activity. Please send them with your child inside their Take Home Folder.
