Today is the 21st day of school. Time seems to pass so quickly when you're having fun! It is already progress report time. Your child will bring home their report on Wednesday. This is a mid nine weeks check point. There is still much more to come. In fact, the children will take another Diagnostic Checkpoint in Math on Wednesday. Please continue to follow your child's grades on PowerSchool. If you have any questions feel free to email or call me.

Last week flew by so quickly! It was Friday Fun Day before I knew it. Mr. Wagner was our special reader this week. He read a very funny story about the principal from the Black Lagoon. Thank you Mr. Wagner for taking time out of your busy day to be a part of our class on Friday. Several parents have sent in snacks for the children. THANK YOU so much! The children really look forward to morning milk and snack break.

Buster The Bus came to school on Thursday to help the children learn about bus safety. The remote controlled talking bus really captured the attention of the children. Many left wanting a Buster The Bus!

Samantha is our first Student of the Week. Today was her Family Day. Her mother and sister joined the class for lunch. We enjoyed learning new things about Samantha at her sharing time. She was born in Germany! This week Samantha took home our Traveling Journal Bee Bag. When your child is our Student of the Week they may bring a show and tell every day. We also have a book sharing time where the star student may share their favorite book with the class. Please see the schedule sent home to know when it is your child's week.
