Today was an awesome second day of school! This morning we had the most fun learning about the 3 E’s and how to ensure that each one is valued. This class is amazing and we are having the best time getting to know our learning community. Yesterday we had a Town hall meeting with Mr. Hartley and Mrs. Chinn to introduce the BCS theme of Being G.E.E.K ed (Global Education Engaging Kids)
This is a year where we are going to have fun taking risks and pushing ourselves forward.
This afternoon we met with our Ed. Tech teacher and our Spanish teacher. Get ready for a thrilling Thursday!
Please check your child's Blue Take Home Folder today for all the mail he/she received. It's a lot, but it's important, so please go over it all!
Our school planners will not be ready for a couple weeks, so your child is bringing home a temporary planner. Part of your child's homework each night is to have you sign that planner. Please do so each day so I know you are aware of each night's homework.
All of us have mail today!
*Please encourage your child to bring a water bottle to class so he/she does not have to leave class when thirsty!
IT IS IMPORTANT FOR YOUR CHILD TO BRING SHARPENED PENCILS TO SCHOOL EACH DAY! PLEASE PROVIDE YOUR CHILD WITH A PERSONAL PENCIL SHARPENER TO KEEP IN HIS/HER BINDER!!!
REMEMBER TO GET YOUR PLANNER SIGNED EVERY DAY!
3rd Grade Reading: 25 minutes each day
4th Grade Reading: 35 minutes each day

3rd Grade Math: Today we received our student reference book (SRB). The SRB will be staying at home with you as a reference guide for the year. Each student was assigned a book they will return at the end of the year. We also have a newer set of SRB’s for the classroom. Please be aware that this edition is older than the Math Journal and Home Link book. Students also received their homelink book. I told the kids that these live, eat and breath in the binder! The homelink books are hole-punched and should be bound by the three rings. The students will work inside of the binder when using the home link book. This will ensure that it doesn’t get lost! Tomorrow we will be exploring these journals!
4th Grade Math: Today we received our fourth grade Student Reference Books! The kids will keep these at home until June. Please know that they are an older edition so the page numbers may not match your child’s math book all the time. However, this is an excellent resource for you to keep at home! Your child received a Student Reference Book Hunt today. This needs to be completed and signed by Monday the 13th! Today we also took a practice multiplication timed test. By the end of the year, your child should be able to complete 100 facts in 5 minutes. If this was not the case today, it is always a good idea to practice with him/her for a few minutes a day! Tomorrow we will receive our journals and study links!
REMEMBER TO GET YOUR PLANNER SIGNED EVERY DAY!
Encourage your child to use the yellow checklist in his/her binder at the end of each day! It is a great tool!
Bring Sharpened Pencils!
Bring HEALTHY Snack!
Get Planner Signed!
