Happy Thanksgiving!!
The Thanksgiving dinner was a huge success except for that ghost that kept creeping around-haha! I hope ypu have a safe and restful week of family time. I'm heading to Florida on Wednesday morning at 2:00 a.m. so I can meet my son for lunch at 11:30 in St. Augustine. I miss my boys so bad I can't stand it!!!
This week-No spelling, No homework, No reading Log, and No DLR. I will send home folders on Tuesday and hopefully the school store will be in full operation by Monday. We took most of the stuff out of it for Operation Chritmas Child and I have to wait to get paid before I can open it back up. Any donations would be great!!!
Craft donation of four dollars would be greatly appreciated for our Christmas crafts. This class really likes painting, cutting, and creating.
Love ya'll and see you next week.

NO!! I haven't forgotten about the Blog!!!
Life has been crazy in the Carroll classroom. With Operation Christmas Child, the campfire, getting ready for the Thanksgiving dinner, Benchmark testing, finishing up Chapter 3 in math, finishing up "Sideways Stories", PBIS incentive, and school in general, I just haven't been able to post as much as I wanted to. I"M SORRY!!! And then I just noticed I didn't even put the spelling words up last week.
We are looking forward to tomorrow night. Please remember to be in the cafeteria by 6 so we can eat around 6:15. We only have a few things to perform but I still think you'll enjoy the night.
Please remember to pay your $25 second deposit by Dec. 10.
Sign up for the school blood drive in December.
Don't forget to send in "Power Snack" ASAP. We are out!!!
Get ready for Dessert Night in December. On dessert night we will be showing our Reading Rainbow videos.
Life is good-I hope you are looking forward to Thanksgiving as much as I am. I am traveling to Florida to be with my family and to also attend the wedding of my Step-son Matthew. I'll be staying with Jake one night in St. Augustine, Staying with Zack and Libby one night in Port Orange, having Thanksgiving in Orlando with Gary's sister, traveling to Ft Lauderdale for Matt's wedding and then heading home. All of this in 5 days. Another whirlwind vacation for the Carroll family. One day Gary and I are going to take a vacation and just sit and relax-probably not.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

GIVING!!
I am proud to say that our class donated 16 boxes for Operation Christmas Child. I will present these at my church on Sunday morning. If any child or family is interested in going to church with me, meet me at Trinity Wesleyan Church on Aiken Road at 8:25 on Sunday morning so we can pray over them and the children that will receive them. Call my home phone and leave me a message so I will know who to look for. Thanks to Dare Brown for helping me wrap and pack the boxes, I couldn't have done it without her.
Food letters are finally coming home today. Please send back the bottom portion of the letter by Monday so I can see if you agree to your food assignment. Please prepare for 50-75 people. We have over 100 attending right now. I am thrilled with the response. Happy Cooking!!!
Have a great weekend, I am looking forward to marshmellows, campfires, football games, family, friends, food, fun and fellowship!!!
I'll either see you tonight at my house, Sunday at church, or back at school on Monday. Be safe and do a random act of kindness for someone this weekend, it will make you feel so good inside.

Thursday and Friday's plan
On Thursday I am meeting the people who brought items for the Operation Christmas Child boxes. We will pack these and deliver them to Trinity Wesleyan Church on Sunday.
Friday night at my house for smores-all 13 who made their goal will be there.
On Friday you will have what you need to bring to the Thanksgiving dinner, I promise. I'm sorry it has taken me so long to get it to you. The dinner is next Friday, Nov. 19. We are really looking forward to this event.
Did your child try to talk you into worm composting today? We had a great visit from the 4-H center today and they taught us how to worm compost. We will be starting our own after Christmas.
We are super busy right now. It's hard for us to get everything done. I thank God every day for Mrs. Rorrer and the help she gives me-she goes above and beyond the call of duty-I love her and her helpful spirit. So here's a WHOOP-WHOOP to Mrs. Rorrer.
Have a great weekend and let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

YES, I am up at 3:30!!!
I hope everyone has a great weekend and enjoys some of the Fall Festivals and sales that are going on. I am catering my first event this weekend with my sister so say a little prayer for our new little sideline business.
The new spelling words are posted.
Thank you to everyone who donated items for Operation Christmas Child. We have enough for about 10 boxes, a little short of our goal but at least we made an effort. I still need a few more $7.00 checks made out to Samaritan's Purse to include with the boxes. Thanks for all that you do.

SAVE THE DATE!!
Due to circumstances beyond my control, I will not be at school on Friday and therefore I have changed the Campfire to Friday night Nov, 12 from 5:30-7:30. The 13 children that are coming are : Allex, Jarred, Chasity, Jalund, Bailey, Aaron, Williams, Mikayla, Kennedy, Kyle, Vincenzo, Emma, and Viridiana. Congrats to them and we're not talking a small amount of points here-everyone on this list had 18 or more points. The top three in our class for the nine weeks are #1 Aaron with 80 points, #2 Allex with 59 points, and #3 Bailey 41 points. 20 out of 25 children made the basic AR goal-WOW!!! I'm so proud. It looks like everyone has jumped on the bandwagon with me and we are proving that reading is cool and the more you read the better you read.
Thanksgiving dinner letters for food to bring will come home on Monday. Remember the date: Friday, Nov. 19 at 6:00 in the cafeteria. If anyone would like to help me set up, please let me know.
Remember we will have a Landform test on Wednesday-study guides will come home on Monday.
There is a chorus performance that the fifth grade will be doing on Nov. 18 (I think that's correct). I don't know a lot about it being that I have nothing to do with it. Sorry, I will try to find out more for you this week.
If you are making playdoh for me please send it in on Monday instead of Friday.
There will be a holiday on Thursday, Nov. 11 for Veterans Day.
Are you tired of hearing "Fifty Nifty" yet? Haha, I love it!!!
Have a happy weekend, I'll post the new spelling words this weekend.
Folders will come home on Monday instead of this Friday.
WOW!!! That's a lot of info. That's what I get for not posting for 5 days.
LOVE YOU!!!!
