The BIG day...FUN RUN!!!

All 16 classes lined up ready to run!
Here we go!

Kids ran for 30-40 minutes. We had fun lap themes like the Rodeo Lap, Dance Lap, Conga Line Lap, and Beat the Boosterteam Lap!

Still going!

Gathering up after the run...kids are giving one more "STAND UP" cheer!

As a motivator to get more pledges, the winning class got to have their teacher shove a pie in Coach Childers' face...Mrs. Seimers class won, but we all got to watch!!
What a good sport!!

Team "MILLER MAGIC" did a great job and had a blast! We are definitely the BEST!!!

BOOSTERTHON UPDATE...

So sorry for the “show and tell” confusion—we will have it tomorrow afternoon. Your child can bring their favorite toy to show to their friends. The toy will have to stay in their backpack until time for “show and tell,” so please make sure it fits in their backpack! Thanks!

FUN RUN is TOMORROW at 10:30—please come if you can!!! Because the weather will be cold, please send your child to school in a long sleeved shirt. I am keeping shirts here and will give them to the kids in the morning. They will wear their new Boosterthon shirt OVER their long sleeved shirt. (Teachers mark off the laps on the shirt, so they would be pretty cold if they only wear the t-shirt!)

You will be responsible for collecting money for the pledges your child has. PLEASE be quick with this to make sure our class gets 20% of the total we bring in!! You will get a note about how many laps your child ran, so you will know how much to collect! Thanks for all of your support!! The kids and I have had fun with this fundraiser!

Announcements for next week...

· Kids are SUPER excited about the Boosterthon Fun Run—it will be Thursday!! I will let you know the time as soon as I have it. Send in those pledges!!!

· Because only 3 students brought back a spring semester donation, I will have to continue to ask for needed items in the classroom. If you can send them, I would really appreciate it!!

**We need some new ink cartridges—I bought a Kodak ESP-5 All in One printer this summer because the ink is cheaper. If you can buy black and/or colored ink, I would really appreciate it!
**I also need a box of Popsicle sticks for an art project next week.

· Keep sending BOX TOPS to school! We will win a prize if we are one of the TOP 5 classes!!

· Remember to send your child’s snack EVERYDAY! I am out of “extra snack!!”
