Comments(0) How about some Halloween fun? We will be celebrate Halloween after our Ellis Island trip. We get back to school at 2:30, just in time to have a 45 minute party. We can’t dress up for our field trip, as it wouldn’t be appropriate to go to a national historic site dressed as ghouls. However, if you want to bring a mask or hat, that would be fine. We won’t have time to change into our full costumes because our party is too short. I think you would agree with me when I say, we’ll have a blast anyway.

Comments(0) Homework this evening consists of your usual 30 minutes of reading and an additional 20 minutes of writing. For your writing assignment you should consider the question, “Who is selfish in Charlotte’s Web?” Make an outline and write your paragraph. If you have not finished your hero piece start there. You should not work for more than 20 minutes on writing. So don’t worry if you don’t finish. But, do try to make tracks.
Comments(0) Tomorrow we will go the the Lower East Side Tenement Museum and then for our walking tour. Dress for the weather! It is supposed be a drizzly day. Umbrellas and galoshes would be good.
We leave the school at 9. Your parents should meet us at 97 Orchard Street at 11:30. Remember to bring $20.
