Tuesday we will be talking to our Buddies in Texas.  We do Skype and share our weather and what fun activities that are going on at Nelson.         Wednesday we are having a pumpkin carving contest for the Home and School.  If you are participating in it please remember to bring your pumpkin with you and place it on the front table in the lobby.   This week we will be starting our new unit in Science.  It is on Soil.  I am asking that the students try to bring in a soil sample to investigate on Wednesday.  See the note that went home for more details.     The weather is changing very fast and the temperature is dropping especially in the mornings.  Just a reminder to dress for the weather with warm clothes as it is easier to peel them off if it warms up later in the day.   Remember to bring your Phys.Ed clothes on Thursday and we have library too. Many of our students are not remembering so don't let this happen to you.
