Book Report

Have you noticed your child reading recently? Hopefully, you have. Newbery book reports are due on November 5th. Students have been given directions for their reports, and should be working a little each evening on the requirements. I am encouraging them not to wait until the last minute. Learning to plan ahead will be a very useful skill next year. Happy Reading!

Apples Wanted

October 27th is Apple Crunch Day. We are in need of apple donations for our classroom activities. If you are willing to donate a bag of apples please send a note in with your son or daughter, or email me. We are looking forward to an apple filled day. As always thanks for your support.
