1.  Thanks to everyone who visited our class blog last week.  It's not too late to listen to the
bugle and the flute and vote for your favorite!

2. We have no school next week due to Thanksgiving Holidays.  Have a wonderful and
Happy Thanksgiving!

3.  Lyon will be collecting canned food for a food drive benefitting the Covington Food Bank.  We'll
start collecting food Nov. 30 to replenish their food items between Thanksgiving and Christmas. 
Our class will also be weighing different canned good items and comparing the weights as part
of our Every Day Counts math lessons.
