Today was fantastic! Your kids worked so hard and were the best cooperative learners! As scientists today, we created our very own reed instruments using special straws. These cool inventions will be coming home today. Take a peek and enjoy the sounds! Get ready for a thrilling Thursday.

Goal setting packet- The goal setting packets went home with students last Thursday. Please look over it with your child to help them decide on a couple of goals for this year. The packet is due back on Tuesday, September 30th

If you have not yet signed up for a conference, please do so as soon as possible! Remember, this is a conference where you will bring your child with you!

Sign up for a Goal Setting Conference outside of my doorway on green paper. Child and parent attend this meeting together.

Summer Projects and packets are due on September 29th. If your child’s project is large, please keep it at home until that date! Unfortunately our classroom is small and we don’t have a lot of room to store the projects. Thank you!
