We started by brainstorming exactly how we wanted ourselves and other kids to act in our classroom. We made a huge list. If it was shared out, it was written down. Then we started looking for common themes in our list. Kids started sharing ideas for our statement and we started writing them down. We had several options / suggestions but when our final product was shared, we all KNEW it was "THE ONE!" I wish you could have been there. It was AWESOME!!! Just as we were finishing up (or so we thought), one friend raised his hand and said " I think we need to add that we stick together." We made the final addition and BOOM. Here is what we ended up with....
Your student brought home a Scholastic Book Order yesterday. I probably will not send these home monthly but do make them available from time to time. This is a great way to build your library at home with age appropriate books that kids love. This month’s options are fantastic! My favorite author, Mo Willems, has several books available.
Please note that there are MANY more options available online {click here} that you can choose from. Our class code is GPBLR. Orders and money are due by Thursday, September 21st. Please note that if you choose to send an order you will need to pay with a check.
TOPIC 2 MATH TEST
Our 2nd math assessment is scheduled for next Friday! I will send home a study guide again early next week. Please remember that the study guides are completely optional but are a great way to review with your student.
OPEN HOUSE
Mark your calendars now!!! Our Open House will be on October 3rd beginning at 6:00 PM. Come visit our classroom, check out your student’s work, sign up for conferences, and visit the Book Fair in the library!
