Apple Witches
This note was sent home Friday. Let me know if there are any questions. There is a little wiggle room on the October 8th deadline because we aren’t dressing our witches until the 20th.
Dear Parents,
Your third grader is in the process of making an apple witch. For this project, your student needs to bring a few items from home. If you have any problems providing the materials needed, please email me as soon as possible. If we do not hear from you, we will not have extra materials available for your child. Your student will need these materials by Thursday, October 8th. If he/she brings them before then, great. Attached is a pattern for the dress, gloves and a hat. Dress Pattern Please have all of these items precut and the dress sewn together, leaving a very small space open (Just big enough for a skewer to fi through) for the neck. If you can make the hat, that would be very helpful also (just roll the hat top into a cone, and glue it in the middle of the hat brim). Place all parts in a baggie and label them with your child’s name. Following these steps will save A LOT OF TIME! Note: If you cannot sew the dress, please send it precut and we have some fabulous moms who will help us with sewing.
Materials
- 1 Square foot of any material (Cut out the using the dress pattern)
- 1 to 2 Small pieces of felt (Any color you want to match your material. Use the glove pattern and cut out 4. You may use the same piece, or a different color to cut out the hat.
- 1 six inch stick or twig from a tree for a broomstick. Please do not send a dowel. It should be about the size that was shown in class.
I will provide your student with yarn for hair and the needed pipe cleaner for the arms. Upon completion of this portion of the project, your student will be writing about the character they have made. We will then send the apple witch home with a fun story about it. This project will store for many years to come.
We will be dressing our apple witches on Tuesday, October 20th, starting at 1:30. If you can help us that day, please sign the note below and return to school as soon as possible.
Thanks,
Miss Young

Back to School Night
Hello,
This is just a reminder about Back to School Night tomorrow. I am really excited to meet everyone!! To make sure everyone gets all pertinent information I am going to have 15 minute sessions (with a little built in wiggle room) throughout the evening starting at 5:35. I have prepared a short powerpoint that hits all of the highlights of the disclosure statement and some contact info. It should last about 8 minutes, leaving a little time for questions and introductions at the end. I will be closing the door when we start each session. Last year I didn’t feel like I was able to talk to everyone and get them up to speed with the open house approach. You only need to attend one of the session, but you are welcome to stick around for more. Let me know if this works for you!
1st session 5:35
2nd session 5:55
3rd session 6:15
4th session 6:35
5th session 6:55
6th session 7:15
Thanks,
Ms. Young
