Week 5 Reminders and Resources

Hello families! It was so nice to be back with you for Week 5 and pajama day was lots of fun, wasn't it? Here are a couple reminders for you on upcoming dates and then you'll find resources to help you with continued study on your Foundations memory work this week.

Reminders

Tin Whistle - Don't forget to purchase a tin whistle for each child in your family before week 7! You can get one from classicalconversations.com or on Amazon here for just $6.95. Just make sure you have a tin whistle in Key of D!

Fundraising - please email Ashley Paruch if you want to participate in the Barnes and Noble fundraiser this spring. We are also going to do a Chick-fil-a calendar fundraiser (Yay!) so check with her for information on how to participate in that as well.

Fall Break & Apple Orchard Field Trip - We will not have CC on Monday, October 10, but we will be traveling to the Apple Hill Apple Orchard for a field trip that morning. Bring a picnic lunch. If you plan to participate in the tour, please call Cindy Frady and let her know. The cost for the tour is $8/person.

Clothing Swap - We will have a clothing swap on October 8 at West Hickory from 10-12. Bring your gently used clothes, shoes, purses, etc. to swap with other moms. Kids clothes are welcome too! You can also bring your children and any toys they wish to share and they can have a toy swap while moms shop each others goodies. All leftover clothing will be donated to Highways and Hedges for the homeless and needy in our area.
