Today we enjoyed watching our beetles emerge as darkling beetles. It happened right before our eyes and was amazing! We have several that pupating and we anticipate their arrival as beetles anyday. I am so proud of the students’ hard work today. I truly have the best class!

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR CHILD HAS PENCILS IN HIS/HER BINDER!!!

Here’s what we have for you tonight:

Bring 3 or more sharpened pencils!

We have mail today!

Here are the official Waikiki rules to go with the letter you received:

Students can only count reading minutes for reading done at home (after school at 3:15pm or after choice hour at 4:05pm)
The kids are allowed to read extra minutes to help our team however a 3rd or 4th grader will only earn extra points if he or she doubles their reading requirement.
For example: For each additional 100 minutes a third grader reads, he would earn 50 extra miles (points) for his class.

Reading:
3rd graders: 20 mins
4th graders: 30 mins

Language Arts:
