Please write your child's name in their clothing items and we will make sure to get them back to the students when they go missing. ******************************************** Heavenly HatsHeavenly Hats will take place at Meadowbrook School on Wednesday, October 28. If you wish to wear a hat to school, please bring a dollar to donate to the Heavenly Hats. Heavenly Hats is a foundation that helps provide hats to cancer patients. Come show your school spirit by wearing a hat to school and raising money for a great cause!

Harmann will be taking pictures of students new to Meadowbrook since September and any student whose parent desires a re-take. Re-takes are $5.00 and if you have not sent that in, do so that day with a check made out to Harmann Studio.
*********************************************** Let’s Talk!
with Mrs. VanAsten, Speech-Language Pathologist The first few months of the school year are flying by fast! I’ve enjoyed getting to know many of the students at Meadowbrook so far. As promised, I’ll be sharing tips with you each month about how to improve your child’s speech and language skills, which will make them a more confident communicator. For the month of October I would like to focus on the language skill of comparing and contrasting. Beginning in Kindergarten and working up through the grade levels, it is important that students are able to identify similarities and differences between people, objects, stories, etc. A fun way to work on this skill is to compare and contrast different types of candy (which students should be getting plenty of soon!). Talk with your child about how two candies are the same (both made with chocolate; both come in a wrapper, etc.) and different (one has peanut butter in it, the other doesn’t; one has a foil wrapper, the other a plastic wrapper, etc.). Find other things around your home or in your community you could compare and contrast. This skill helps to build the vocabulary of all students as well. Communication is empowering. Thank you for your support, and I wish all the best to each student and family at Meadowbrook Elementary School! Mrs. Katie VanAsten ********************************************** 3rd Graders Share Their TimeSome 3rd graders thought it would be fun to come into the cafeteria during their recess to read to some kindergarteners, so they could enjoy a story while they ate.
