Dolphin Daily News

November will kick off with a study of Patriotism.  This week we will learn 
about the symbols of our country and why it is important to show patriotism.  
Next Monday is our Veteran’s Day assembly- please let us know ASAP if you 
have a veteran in your family that would like to attend.  The First Grade 
Family Luncheon is Friday, November 20th –let me know if you plan to attend 
so that I can turn the numbers in to the lunchroom.  Please keep reading and 
logging pages on the Read-a-thon Reading Log.  Several Dolphins have already 
received lollipops for reading over 100 pages!  Have a great week!
