Each student should bring in their own small juices (no large bottles) and TWO bags of treats as well as an empty plastic pumpkin or trick or treat bag. One bag of treats is to be distributed to the pre k children who will walking around in the morning for trick or treat. The other bag is for our own class to share in the afternoon: candy, cupcakes, chips, cookies, extra juice containers, etc. Students may also bring in money for a bake sale they are having if they wish. I will only be doing Halloween type activities that day and there will be no homework!
